I have been sorting through some of my stock, and there were a few earrings that were begging to be pimped. They were fine as they were, but nothing special. So I waved my magic wand pliers, and gave them a new look.
First up were these turquoise bead earrings. Nice enough, I like the turquoise and antique brass together:
But I thought that copper might go even better with the bead colour:
Next up were these yummy red 'nugget' beads. They're quite unusual, they have little indents in them. Again, they look fine with the antique brass:
They just needed a little something extra to make them 'pop'
Little yellow flowers FTW! I love how these look now, they remind me of cartoons somehow. Maybe the Mr Men...
Anyway, I will be 'making over' some more jewellery in the coming weeks. I think it's a useful exercise, and it certainly makes me aware of how my jewellery making skills have improved, as have my photography skills.
What do you think?
