Fringe Earrings #99 - Leaf Green & Nutmeg


FRINGE EARRINGS #99
  • 8/0 seed beads Toho "Nickel Plated" (711)
  • 11/0 Miyuki Delica beads "Nickel Plated" (DB21)
  • 11/0 Miyuki Delica beads "Matte Leaf Green" (DB373)
  • 11/0 Miyuki Delica beads "Opaque Black" (DB10)
  • 11/0 Miyuki Delica beads "Duracoat Opaque Dyed Nutmeg" (DB2110)


I don't recall where I got the inspiration for these earrings. I enjoy creating new designs by adapting design elements that I've seen online. In most cases, I shrink the designs down to a size that I like to wear so they end up not looking so much like the originals by the time I'm finished. The green Delicas in these earrings are a sort of sage green and it looks about right in my photos. However, the "Nutmeg" Delicas look very orange in my photos. They are actually a little more yellowish kind of like acorn squash.



You can buy Delica beads at Red Panda, Aura Crystals, Supply Emporium and Jill Wiseman Designs.
