Hi everyone! Here's one of the things I've been working on recently, Southwest inspired, hand embroidered velvet earrings:
|
Front only: hand embroidered flowers & stitching on velvet |
|
Back only: hand stitching on vintage fabric |
|
Front & back: wire wrapped beaded fringe using black seed beads (extras from a beaded sweater), copper beads, clear glass seed beads (from the ends of purchased bead strings), green glass beads, square metal frame, pink copper wire, vintage gold color wire |
These were made for a jewelry challenge, to be shipped out soon.
So, this is what I've been working on, what have you been working on lately?
Stop by Made by You Mondays on Skip to My Lou for many other projects & even a tutorial or two (or a hundred):

Oh, I just love these!! And you're shipping them out? Is it for a swap?
Hi Debbie, thank you! They are for a swap. I have another pair of embroidered earrings (teardrop shape, cotton) & I plan on adding more of these to the shop. I really like the velvet.
Wow--- Those are pretty amazing- can't image how much work they require!
I really love these. My ears have been "unpierced, ie: grown in) for a while now, but I've recently decided to re pierce them and get out all my old earrings again. *And* of course, buy some new ones These are really beautiful, I love the idea of velvet. What an endless variety of images you could put on them! Beautiful and creative!
(Can you tell I want some :-)
I love your 'stuff'!!!!
Those look really great! You can see how much work and patience went into those....amazing.
