52 Earrings in 2011 – No. 7 & 8

The Inspiration

More simplicity.

I made these earring when I made No. 6.

I like the contrast between the copper and silver, and the way that the cable chain loops and sways…

The Inspiration

My birthday!

I’m 40 next month, so I decided to use these gorgeously sparkly light amethyst Swarovski crystals.  Teamed with curved copper sheet, that has been given a heavy antiqued patina – they really shine.
