Made these for mom for her birthday!
The local arts and crafts shop helped with the supplies of course!
Three separate jewelry beads were used for each earring and were a pain to actually get through the long wire I purchased. Then I had to make a loop with...bendy metal...stuff. And then I had to loop the loopy metal onto the clasps and... It was a real pain in the butt and I rage-quit...twice.
But in the end they came out very nicely! These pics don't do them justice if I may gloat just a bit. I'll try and upload better ones another time. But my mom is wearing them and that makes me happy. My dad got kinda teary looking at them. Which is very weird for macho-him.
I chose a gold style because my mom is big on that color for earrings. And gold is just such a warm tone that it suits her just right. She's such a gentle, kind-hearted person.
I love you, mum. Even though you won't ever know this blog is here and will never know I'm writing about you and your present XD
