Grrrrr...Grrrrrr...Grrrrrrr.





No, it is not a growly gus, or any other such monster. It is just me growling in frustration. I feel like the fish in Finding Nemo...."bubble, bubbles, bubbles". I had a lapse in concentration, forgot to wait before putting these earrings in to "cook" and now I have permanent reminders of my forgetfulness. It wouldn't be that bad but, it is a waste of silver, and a WONDERFUL vintage dictionary page. Grrrrr........ *sigh*
Why do you all put up with me? I REALLY AM trying to come up with new designs! Bear with me....please?!
I am off to work on oxidizing, again, with eggs....wish me luck! Take care!

W.I.P.








Hello all! I have been making some earrings from recycled magazines here lately in the studio. They are still a work in progress (W.I.P.), as, well......I am not sure about them yet. Which is why I posted the pictures here for you all to see, because I need....REALLY need some feedback. I have received some great feedback from others on my Facebook page, but it still has not settled my thoughts on this new design. They are made with 15mm Sterling Silver bezel cups, recycled pages from magazines (these are Martha Stewart), resin, and handmade sterling earwires.



Please let me know what you think, as I am having some "difficulties", I guess you could say, with the way the magazine papers seem to change in color a few days after the resin cures.......I want to know if you all think they still look presentable. Thanks for any feedback you can give me!



Take care and have a great day! Go forth and create!



Warmly,

Leslie
