I rarely make earrings.
I made an exception this week because these
vintage petals looked so pretty on my work table.
This is what I started with. I picked up these samples at the June Bead and Button show.
Last month I had a blog post showing you what I did with the brown petal shapes.
Before I added resin and paper to these shapes I still took the time to seal the shapes with mod-podge. It never hurts to protect a surface you think may get a resin stain.
I added these rose stickers to a first layer of Jewelry Resin. The petals are an odd shape so I propped them up so the resin would cure flat.
I added some beads and gel marker lines and did a second glaze coat with Jewelry Resin. When everything was cured I added some earring components and they are ready to wear!
pretty!
ReplyDeleteThe earrings look amazing!!!
ReplyDeleteWas away for a few weeks with little or no internet access Carmi, so just saw these this morning... really pretty... great idea! Thanks again for using my components.
ReplyDeleteThey are fabulous.. I am a guy, and I know it's not common for someone like me to say that but I really find your craft beautiful. Since I do buy and sell jewelry online, I get the opportunity to admire and find female accessories the most intriguing yet fascinating. And I did find yours that way. Thank you for sharing it.
