Who doesn’t look good in purple? I’ve chosen the shades on either side of violet for my Week 7 and 8 designs for the Art Jewelry Elements Earring Challenge.
Starting with the warmer hue, I’ve framed red-violet enamel
discs by Elizabeth Gerod with large bronze hoops from Saki Silver. They’re
topped by a small stack of ceramic, firepolish and bronze discs. Gold-filled
earwires and jump rings are by me.
Perfect for these late-winter, early-spring days, my second design pairs blue-violet charms from THEAtoo with my own wire-wrapped beads (from a tutorial by Deryn Mentock.) The pewter posts echo the design on the charms and allow these earrings to sit close to the ear.
Great earring designs await, so click over to the
AJE reveal post and Pinterest board for lots of inspiration.
Wow I love how the enameled discs are perfectly framed by the hoops! Both lovely designs and use of mixed materials.
