Finding inspiration

Day 81. I have been making jewellery for 30 years. Yes, it’s been THAT long! Over the years I have collected lots and lots of books on jewellery making, and I used to spend a lot of time immersed in these books. They have helped inspire me to try new things. Lately my own making has been inspiring me to make new things. You may have seen my post about tweaking old ideas. Today I made these cute little earrings, inspired by old findings I had tucked away. Now I think I am ready to have another look at some books and see where that inspiration might lead me. You never know. In times like this I feel like I have to think outside the box, and hopefully be pleasantly surprised by what happens. Worst case…I made something!
