Art Jewelry Elements Earring Challenge Reveal 2 (Week 3 and 4 of 52)

Hey all...am back again with another post already!

This is for the Art Jewelry Elements Earring Challenge that I had joined in the beginning of the year.
Its reveal day for week 3 and 4. I only have one pair to show, the last piece of jewelry I made after I was forbidden by the therapist to do more beading.

I made this pair to go with a necklace I sold to a friend. She wanted to gift a whole set to her friend, and liked the necklace.


Since the necklace was a big, statement piece, I decided to make the earring simple.




The "art element" in this pair is the wire arrowhead I made out of matching brown wire. I tried to emulate the shape of the pendant. I wish I had more time and stable hands to really get the shape and scrolling design on the petal. It was a real pain for my hand to make this, but I sure do like how it looks. I hammered the arrowheads down a bit too. I think I like the bit of texture it gave them. Its not quite visible in the photo though :(

Do you like the set?


Apologies for the low-quality photos, I had very little time to make and hand them over to my friend. So just have a bunch of hasty iPhone photos.

Do visit all the other participants of this challenge, there is a TON of eye-candy!

  2. Like it?! LOVE it!!! The necklace is a beauty with that wonderful pendant and I just really love how the earrings are so pretty and round out the set without being a perfect match. Great pieces! Hope you are healing well.
