Oak Leaf Imprint Earrings in Sterling Silver


I decided that I was really, really short on earrings to go with the pendants I've been making.  These have the same texture as many of my pendants.  They are sterling and I used wire to wrap the top and bottom and added some really pretty fresh water pearls.  These look large, but are nice and light weight and they will not weigh your ears down.  I will be making some more earrings soon with various stones.

I've experimented with taking photos on lighter color sand and cement.  The sand works well to hold the earrings at just the perfect angle for photos.  The lever backs press right down in the sand and then you just click away!

About Me

My photo
I enjoy silversmithing, making jewelry, beads and working with paracord. I sculpt in polymer clay and desert themes are my favorite. I'm always looking for ways to incorporate the beauty of nature into my work. My work has been published in a large book called "1000 Beads," Lark Jewelry and Beading, 2014. I have sold beads through the Glendale Bead Museum Shop, a gallery in Tucson and www.wearartbyjulie.etsy.com. I'm an artist currently showing my jewelry at the Shemer Art Center in Phoenix, AZ.
