Take Two

I know you are probably dying of shock right now-3 posts in a matter of 9 days!?!? Wow, she must be serious about this whole blog thing. 

Well I am. :)


So, these two designs are not new per say, but they are some of my all time favorites. Nothing to out there with these earrings, but the simple designs and neutral colors make them safe for everything!



Silver Circle Patterned Sphere with Brown Crystal $10 

Just under 2 inches long (total length is 1& 3/4 inches) these earring are 
what I consider "just enough" earrings. 
They are big enough to be noticed but not overpowering. 
The lever back clasps are also a nice touch, as they tend to 
 be (and feel) more secure compared to other ear wire options.
The sphere is 5/8 of an inch in diameter, medium weight.       






Crystal Dangle in Bronze Circle Cradle $10

I love making these earrings. I hand pound and shape each copper disc
 in order to create a little bowl for the single crystal to dangle/lay in. 
I've discovered that there is something therapeutic in 
pounding metal on an anvil. Weird right? 
(I promise I don't have anger issues--for reals I don't). 

Anyways, back to the earrings.....

There is a tiny tiny bit of jingle factor (nothing huge-no one is 
going to hear you coming from down the hall or across the office) 
that adds a little bit of personality to these already unique earrings. 
VERY lightweight, total length measures 1 & 5/8 inches 
with the copper disc measuring 9/16 of an inch in diameter. 




Phew, it posted this time.
