It's the first update after a really long time because I simply lost the drive and inspiration to bead anymore. Ironically, the horrible situation at work has forced me to go back to beading to seek solace and comfort in my creations. And so here I am, with 11 new pairs of earrings. I named this collection Claire because of how ethereal and delicate the earrings generally are. And it's the only way they're linked. Claire, to me, is very princess-like, elegant and sweet in every way. Enjoy :)
This pair is made up of yellow clay roses and semi precious stones. Do note that due to the nature of semi precious stones, the swirls/patterns in the beads are not uniform. It's beauty lies in the simplicity of the combination.
Made up of the same semi precious stones used in Claire I, coupled with rhodium plated rings and big, elegant white beads, this pair is suitable for the beach, work or club.
This pair is made up of purple clay beads, rhodium plated rings and a variety of Swarovski crystals. It reminds me of everything royal and elegant.
This pair is made up of stunning green briolettes, rhodium plated rings and various beads. This is a personal favourite :)
White-based tensha beads and maroon teardrops make this pair slightly oriental and glamourous still.
This pair is made of 24k gold plated angel charms and ribbon frame, together with pink Swarovski crystals.
Blue clay beads, Swarovski crystals, plastic beads and silver rings make this pair very dreamy. Match it with a long white dress and you're set for the seaside.
This pair is made of white based tensha beads and red paper roses. I sold something similar last X'mas and decided to remake something similar just because it's so pretty.
Purple clay roses couple with clear teardrops make this combination very ladylike. I had to resist the temptation to keep this pair of myself haha.
This pair is made up of pink jade beads, rhodium plated rings and faceted jet black beads. I really love the carvings on the jade, of which I wasn't able to catch on camera. I was reserving these jade beads for later because I couldn't seem to find inspiration to match it well enough. Tell me whether I did a good job now that it's done :)
I haven't come across a ballerina charm as pretty as this. It's 3D all round and extremely pretty. I matched it with pearls (the shape's oh-so unique isn't it) and blue glass beads. The glass beads took me forever to pick out - I was very particular about finding a pair of beads that were of similar size with pretty enough gold swirls in them. Because of the nature of the beads, no two beads are identical.
