I’m in the middle of getting lots and lots of earrings ready for my window display at T’Arts, which I’ll be setting up after I finish my shift there tomorrow.
These earrings, made from gin and tonic bottles, are 3 of the pairs that will be available. I’m hoping to get 100 pairs made! Still lots of work to do…
I made these earrings this morning, they will be part of the Adelaide Remakery SALA exhibition.
The earrings feature beads that I have made from a Hendricks Gin and Fever-Tree tonic water bottle. I am loving the little splash of red in these earrings!
I love the contrasting shape and colour in these Gin and Tonic earrings.
The top bead is from a Fever-Tree tonic bottle, decorated with smashed up glass. The bottom bead is from a Hendricks Gin bottle. Love the shape of this bead, and together it become a classic timeless pair of earrings that I think could be worn for a very long time.
I’m getting all sorts of gin and tonic jewellery ready for my exhibition at Local Images in Penola, opening Friday at 5.00pm.
Really in the middle of making lots of jewellery for the exhibition at Penola. I thought these earrings were quite lovely.
The pair on the left are made from a Hendricks Gin bottle, and the pair on the right are made from a Fever-Tree tonic bottle.
I am right in the middle of getting ready for my exhibition at Local Images. The design process often takes the longest (it certainly has this time). After I’ve gone through that I have loads of beads to make, and then the easy part is making the jewellery!
I have been trying very hard to make sure the pieces in this exhibition are a little bit different from my usual style of jewellery, and I think it’s starting to come together nicely (fingers crossed).
This pair of earrings was made from Hendricks Gin and Fever-Tree tonic bottles, and the copper tube was enamelled with red/purple enamels.
These earrings actually look great with a range of different coloured clothing. They are not too red, nor are they too black and white in colour. The mix of colours means they will work with black and white, red, pink, purple, and grey clothes. Hmm, that basically sums up my winter wardrobe.
So I had to follow up today with a pair of earrings that I made from a Hendricks Gin bottle and a Fever-Tree Tonic bottle! I really like the speckles on the beads, it makes them look so pretty.
