Sugar Plum Fairy Earrings




I made these earrings today and Mum loves them! She said they look something like the Sugar Plum Fairy... which is exactly what I think! Surprisingly, they were not all that simple. It was a little difficult getting them to stay in place when I was twisting the wire around at the top to make them firm, but I was very pleased with the result! I got the beads (stars and petals) off a bracelet I have had hiding in my draws for years... I was glad to be able to get good use out of them :)







And these are a few pairs of other earrings I have made. On Saturday I'm going to be selling them (or trying to) at the markets. I hope I can get rid of them! I've had them hanging in my room for so long... the sight of them drives me crazy! Well, not quite :P

Crazy Earrings

A little while ago we had some friends stay, and one of their girls wore a pair of earrings that was made of assorted beads in various colours. Jess suggested I give it a shot with the beads I have and... today I did it!
They are hoops, with blue, pink, white, green, orange and yellow beads that come in various shapes and sizes. Jess and Beka have already offered to pay me more than the usual price for them. I think I might end up making more than just a few pairs!

I was finally able to down-load the photos off our cameras, so here are the pictures of my flute:
