Leftover Earrings Challenge / Обици от остатъци

They are not exactly leftovers but they look like that on my messy working (=dining) table. Luckily for me, there was the We're All Ears 3rd Annual Leftovers Challenge on Earrings Everyday! We had to post a picture of our working table mess, sort out the leftovers and get making earrings. And here they are!
Това не са точно остатъци, но така изглеждат в бъркотията на работната ми маса. За мой късмет се появи Предизвикателството на остатъците в блога Earrings Everyday. Само трябваше да снимаме работния си безпорядък, да сортираме и подредим остатъчните мъниста и да се захванем с правене на обици. Ето ги и тях!



Obviously, the mess 😕
Очевидно, моята бъркотия 😕


The elements I selected to work with.
Елементите, които избрах.


With the first two pairs, I revisited this project - glass and jasper beads, wire wrapped connectors.
За първите два чифта използвах една стара идея, стъклени мъниста, яспис и елементи от тел.

The next pair harbored some beaded beads I made a while ago. I'm not sure about the crystal bead but I can remake them at any time, right?
С този чифт оползотворих едни залежали мъниста от мъниста. В смисъл, че се чудех къде по-напред да ги използвам и... вече не се чудя. Не съм много сигурна за кристалното мънисто, но нали винаги мога да ги преправя!


This last pair surprised me - I had bought the carnelian leaves long ago and just couldn't find the right design for them. The resin beads gave me the pop of color I needed and I really like them!
С последния чифт изненадах сама себе си - тези листа от карнеол бях купила доста отдавна, но все не им намирах приложение. А и в последния момент реших да ги съчетая с контрастни по цвят мъниста от смола. Харесват ми!


Let's hope I'll make more earrings before the end of next year 😀 Are you curious how everybody else did? Check it out here!
Да се надяваме, че няма да чакам края на следващата година за още една серия обици 😀 Любопитни ли сте какво са направили другите участници? Вижте ето тук!

  2. Love all the pairs. Your beaded beads are so beautiful and I think the crystal bead works great. The copper or brass links you made in the green earrings are very clever.

  4. Thanks for playing along with me, Miss Rozantia! I feel right at home in your crafty space, all the beads have to be right where I can touch and see them. I find that I rarely pull out things that I don't have right in front of me! I do really like those carved carnelian leaves. Very special beads. And I love them with the turquoise! Great job! Enjoy the day! Erin

    1. Thank you, Erin! I felt comfortable sharing my working table mess with people who will understand. And, by the way, looking at the picture, I found a package I had been looking for a couple of days earlier :)
