Week 16 (or is it 17?) of the Art Jewelry Elements Earring Challenge. This week I decided to search among my own polymer clay beads for a source of inspiration. I came across a pair, 35mm/1-3/8" tall, basic black, impressed with a geometric design, and highlighted with mica powders.
Attached to a pair of handmade silver-finished earwires with ivory glass pearl beads, another example of Shelley Graham Turner's "Dressed-Up Earwires". Glammed up with pairs of amber-coloured Czech glass dangles and some silver petite lilies filigree bead caps from Double Angel Design.
Polymer clay beads are a great earring option as they are relatively light for their size. Visit the AJE Earring Challenge Pinterest board anytime for lots of great designs... see you next week!

Beautiful!!!!!!

ReplyDeleteI love the dressed up ear wires and your PMC beads.
ReplyDeleteA lovely pair, very pretty! I've never tried my hand at jewelry but I would love to someday. Have a wonderful Sunday :)
ReplyDeleteI love those! What a great idea, the mica powder on those.
ReplyDeleteThese are pretty cool also! I really love what the mica powder did!
ReplyDeleteI love these, especially the way the mics powder gradually morphs from blue to green. Bet these are even prettier "in person"!
ReplyDeleteLOVE your polymer beads with the mica powder. I never tried that when I was working in PC. Beautiful. And the earrings I LOVE!
ReplyDeleteThese earrings seem inspired by the galaxy. Love your jazzed up pearl ear wires and sparkly beads.
