Earrings Everyday Challenge March 2014

I was reading through Blogs I follow and ran across Earrings Everyday March Challenge. I was inspired by the cute Inspiration picture:


I love the pastel colors in the photo they so remind me of spring. The photo is from Potter's The Tailor of Gloucester. I used the leaves and the pink from this photo to create these earrings.


The Bluish Green leaves are glass and the pink are ceramic. I connected them to a Circle weaved of wire and added the earring clasp. Always remember keep smiling you never know where you will find a little inspiration.

BEAD SOUP 2014 Is On

You met my Bead Soup Blog Partner Hannah Trost in a earlier Blog. Well now I have my ingredients and I have put my soup on a slow simmer. First Hannah labeled my ingredients:
Gun Metal fun chain, Preciosa crystals, Black Czech fire polished beads in assorted sizes, Sterling Silver beads from her Grandmother's collection:
Then she added some Gold Freshwater Pearls for color, I love and need color. There is a Silver Triangular clasp. A sprinkle of Sodalite Daggers, (happy dance) more color glass beads in a gray blue and 3mm czech glass blue and gold. OMG a Large 2 sided Focal (Yes, yes, Luv it) Dumortierite Stone One side is smooth and shiny and

 the other side has a slightly rough texture with colors.(So you know where my emphasis and loyalty lies)

Of course my soup is on and simmering. I am so sure it will be ready way before the Hop. I am so excited and can hardly wait for the Reveal. While the soup is on wander on over to Hannah Trost at  http://pzdesigns.blogspot.com/   You will be able to see what I sent to Hannah, sit and visit with her for awhile. (She likes Dragons, has even painted them)
Thanks for stopping by, and Ya'll come back now.

Isn't this an Amazing piece by Hannah.  Well, I put together some soups and its always so hard to choose one. I ordered some things and didn't realize it was being shipped from outside the states and take forever.  I didn't want to be late so I mailed what I had. Lucky girl will get 2 shipments. In my haste I forgot to take pictures pre packaging. but never fear, Hannah will take some pictures (I Hope).  I sent Hannah these
