Gypsy Magic-Earring Project

I am excited to be working on two new Tribal fusion peacock earring project for my belly dance classmates Alicia and Denya. Alicia loves wheat brown feathers so she wanted an earthy version of the Sula earrings. The only problem we both stumbled upon was which metal link should I use for the outer support hoop.

Copper?

Sterling silver ?

or antiqued brass? Once the metal hoops are choosen I will wrap them in brown leather an then add a few filigree charms. Alicia has given them the name Amazon- I like it;-)

These beautiful handforged and soldered metal hoops in Rustic Copper by Missficklemedia and Sterling silver by Aunali are great hoops to work with. sturdy, strong but not heavy at all.

Alicia and Denya loved the mixed metal components and czech glass beads I had chosen for the designs and hand picked their favorite color combinations

Denya picked this eclectic color combo of verdigris, silver and brass with yellow czech moon beads and bright green dyed peacock feathers for the Athena Earring Project.

I need to finish the earrings by Saturday. I would love your input to help us decide! If you scroll up to the upper right hand side of the blog you can find my blog poll just above my shop links.

I love the almost raven /off black color of them. These are excellent quality synthetic feathers that have been bleached, then dyed a nice off black/deep navy teal color. The dye is semi-colorfast so it can run just a little bit when in contact with warm/hot water but it is a long lasting hue.

You will find these in sample pair of two, sets of four and sets of 8.

India- is my latest patina earring that will added to my shop. She is gorgeous! Beautiful Verdigris patina brass tribal style teardrop connector with a handmade teal and brown dotted swirl lampwork beads handcrafted by Sheltie19 on Etsy.
