Day Fifteen (15): Gold and aqua crystal earrings

See the full gallery on posterous

I spent most of today working on a big thing, a grant proposal for my summer opera workshop :)  So I decided to make a small but pretty thing, a pair of earrings, just as contrast ....

I bought these Chinese crystals in Toronto -- they're very changeable with, moving from blue to green to grey.  I like them with the gold.  I've never made any gold jewellery before, but I got the fancy headpins in T.O., too, and thought I'd combine them with the gold beadcaps and wires I'd bought earlier this year.

Over halfway through!

These are for sale at my Artfire shop now
