I got back in the studio and went to town on creating some new reticulated earrings. My next ad in Downeast magazine is coming out in the February issue and I feature a great pair of earrings. The only problem (not really a problem) is that they sold after the ad was designed. So, I thought what a good excuse to focus on making earrings. Here's what I've finished:
The seven pairs sitting pretty in the studio.
These are the smallest pair--with pink tourmaline seed beads.
I love the simplicity and clean lines here.
Stud backs on heavily reticulated silver with 4mm apple green chryso-prase cabs.
Squiggles and curves dangle on the hooked earwires.
The green aventurine cabs here add just the right touch to the clean lines.
These earrings are most similar to the pair in the ad. The 6x8mm stones are black lace agate. The squiggle makes for a fun design.
Last but not least, another design featuring the balls and bars on the reticulated metal.
Well, back at it tomorrow. I have a few pendants in the works. We'll see where they go.
