Black and White with a bit of Red

While rumaging through my collection of earrings I sadly realized that I didn't have a single pair to match my new black and white blouse.  Although I often wear black and white, for some odd reason I've never made or purchased a pair of earrings in that neutral combination.  Since many of my outfits have a bit of red with the black and white, I set to work creating a pair to match.  Photographed here are two pairs I whipped up.  Once I had the beads out I decided I might as well make an extra pair.  The top pair has a rounded hook with no latch finding from Sierra Pacific and the bottom pair is a decorated endless hoop from Darice.  The beads were simply strung on fancy head pins and attached to the earring hooks/hoops. If you are new to jewelry making, I suggest that you check out the supplies at Ben Franklin Crafts and start with simple projects like these earrings.  I hope you are enjoying your Memorieal Day weekend and thank you for taking the time to visit.  An extra big 'MAHALO'  to you, if you took the time to leave a sweet comment!
