My good friend Sibila, who's getting married this summer in Serbia!!!, wanted a fushia wedding dress~ in which i thought was very appropriate! She's got a lot spunk and personality, so with that she'd totally rock it. Her fiance and family however.. weren't so keen.
SO! i offered to make her some fushia earrings intead to spiff and sparkle her up a little. <3
materials : antler bone, swarvoski crystals, delica beads

Headband

On the numerous suggestions of "you should make it a headband"
Well, i did. and it actually turned out to be a dazzling idea! Thanks you guys. I basically took the embroidered quill bracelet technique and made it longer. I almost don't want to sell it. But, my physical health depends on this income, a girls gotta eat right? That and my savings account for a one way ticket to Europe. Okay, maybe not one a way...i'll most likely make it a two way...maybe.

If there is no stuggle, there is no progress. I'm sort of struggling right now with my jewelery, with not having much of a work space, trying to afford materials, and finding time to sit and create new pieces. But there will be a major pay off in the end, i can feel it. My "taaa daaaa moment will arrive soon enough, with a bedazzling amount of peices! i won't let y'all down
