Fringe Earrings - Eggplant, Limestone and Black


FRINGE EARRINGS
  • 8/0 seed beads Toho "Nickel Plated" (711)
  • 11/0 Miyuki Delica beads "Duracoat Galvanized Pewter" (DB1852)
  • 11/0 Miyuki Delica beads "Opaque Limestone Luster" (DB211)
  • 11/0 Miyuki Delica beads "Opaque Black" (DB10)
  • 11/0 Miyuki Delica beads "Galvanized Matte Eggplant" (DB1174)


I blogged HERE a couple years ago about the same earring design made with mauve Delicas. I had originally seen earrings like these on the blog of Anna Belous. I haven't been able to find the original photo on her blog again but I recently came across it on the site where she is selling her beadwork. You can see her earrings HERE. Anna has some wonderful fringe earrings but most of them are much wider and longer than I like to wear. These are the exception. I like them exactly the way that she designed them.

In case you're wondering why I used Toho nickel 8/0 beads at the top of these earrings instead of pewter ones, it's because I wasn't thinking clearly and forgot that I was using pewter beads. Oops!


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

On Friday you should have received an email with yesterday's post like I did. For some reason they combined Thursday's and Friday's posts in one email. If you scroll to the bottom of the email, you'll see my post from Thursday below Friday's post. Hopefully this isn't going to be the way they'll do it from now on because it's rather confusing.
