Year: 2020

Day 36. More beads made from a @banrockstationwines wine bottle. Simple and sweet.

Day 35. A simple and sweet pair of earrings, the beads were made from a @banrockstationwineswine bottle. I love these two colours together! 

Day 34. Who saw this coming? After yesterday’s pair of green flower earrings with two flowers, I thought…let’s see what three flowers look like! Long, beautiful colours, lots of movement and surprisingly light, these earrings make a real statement.

Day 33. Last year I made some double earrings using slightly different beads, but today I came across a bunch of these little cut flower beads and thought I would give them a go.

Day 32. Ok, so these are pretty much just different! Different beads, enamel copper tubes are different lengths. Hmm, maybe I should have also put different hooks on them. Maybe tomorrow 😛

Day 31. Thanks for all the kind words for yesterday’s bright yellow earrings! I am defining having a lot of fun with this daily creative challenge, and finding new ways to make earrings has been really flowing lately. I think that is one of the main things I love about a daily creative challenge – ideas spark more ideas and you never know where they will go. Anyway, enjoy today’s pair of earrings, again inspired by mismatch and long dangles! 

Day 30. I keep getting drawn back to making mis-matched earrings. I love the same-same but different quality of this pair. Also loving the bright yellow glass.

Day 29. I love that Pantone’s colour of the year for 2020 is Classic Blue, and that it looks a lot like Skyy Vodka bottles! I also love the story behind the colour, and the reason it was chosen this year. This colour instills calm and highlights our desires for a stable foundation on which to build as we cross into a new era.

Day 28. Another variation on the pearls I used yesterday, this time with some Skyy Vodka beads sprinkled in between.

Day 27. More new pearls! I had a lot of fun looking at pearls last week and dreaming about what I might make with them. I am also looking forward to adding them to some necklaces, but for now I am enjoying making earrings with them. I love this combo with the Moet champagne bottle earrings, classic and classy!
