Turquoise Teardrop topped with Golden Prayer Bead on Copper $12

This turquoise tear drop bead is about 1/2 inches long and 1/2 inch wide at the widest part of its bulge. The golden prayer bead adds another 1/2 inch. Add the copper ear wire and the total earring length is just over 2 inches. The prayer bead is hand pounded creating an awesome textured matte finish, which helps compliment the shine of the teardrop bead finish.

Ornate Turquoise Bead with Red Dangle on Brass $10

I can't get enough of these earrings! The round turquoise bead is one of my most popular beads--and the sad thing is that the place I bought it from no longer carries them (sniffle sniffle). I am searching high and low for another carrier though so keep your fingers crossed! Total earring length is 2 & 1/4 inches, the turquoise bead being a 3/4 inch circle. As you can see from the picture, the red dangle bead catches the light ever so slightly, adding just a little sparkle here and there.

Red, Yellow or Blue Craved Round Bead on Copper $10 

Each bead is about 3/4 inch long and wide and 1/2 thick. The carvings do not exactly match the carvings of the smaller round beads on the necklace, however they are similar enough they look great when worn as a set or alone. Super light weight (I know, it surprised me too), total earring length is about 2 inches.

Translucent Green Teardrop Dangled from Bronze Circle on Bronze $8
I heart these ones. Simple as that. I mean look at that green! Beautiful. These slender earrings are 3 inches long. The hoop accounts for 1 and 3/4 inches of that, the circle 1/4 inch and the bead the remaining 1 inch. The bead is high quality acrylic, which makes for a price friendly pair of earrings that are extremely light weight.

Silver Filigree Oval with Round Burnt Orange Dangle $12

I have become obsessed with burnt orange over the last little while so you can thank my obsession for this awesome bead. Besides great color, the stone has a honeycomb pattern too. You can see from the picture that the pattern adds to the overall texture and helps to catch and reflect light. The entire earring is 2.75 inches long. The filigree oval is about 7/8 inch wide and 1 and 1/8 inch long. The round dangle bead is about 1 cm.

White Glow Ball Earrings with Ornate Top on Silver $10

I really wish you could see how cool these earrings are. The picture kind of shows it, but not in its entirety. The balls are reflective so when the light hits them just right they literally look like they are glowing. It sounds a little weird, but I promise it is so cool. I get the glowing beads from Asia, and they are one of my most popular items. I have them in a bunch of different colors too so be sure to watch out for them. Anyway-- the "glowing" makes these earrings super unique. This particular pair is about 2.5 inches long and super light weight. The long hoop backs makes them dangly, but not so dangly that they look funny. The white bead is 16mm, which is just a little bit bigger than a traditional gum ball. (sorry that is the only thing I could think of)

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.
