Raindrops in the Woods ~ 52 Earrings: week 5


Another last minute pair of earrings! I actually had these planned for last week, but then ran out of time. The loops are teal polymer clay. I textured them with a spiral stamp I made eons ago and filled in the detail with burnt umber acrylic paint. Then I sanded the edges of the loops and also the ends of the wood beads for a more worn and rustic look.

The scattered spirals with tiny dots, combined with the wooden beads make me think of raindrops falling in a woodland pool. I really like how they turned out... they're big and they're boho... and they match my new handbag! I love brown and teal together!

Check out the Flickr pool here to see what everyone else mixed up for week five.

Already I have a plan for next week's pair. See you then!
