Is this your project? Can you share instructions or a pattern with the Craftsy community?
Difficulty:
Category: Jewelry
Type of item: Accessory
For: Women
Style: Mod, Casual
Materials
Miyuki 4mm Caribbean Mix cube beads from eebeads.com and sterling silver headpins. The connector is from the Sterling Elegance line, found at chain craft stores.
What was your inspiration?
Perfect Match: Earring Designs for Every Occasion by Sara Schwittek. What an inspiring book! After looking through all the lovely earring designs, I figured I could probably design some myself. It is the pattern Fireworks in Aqua and Mocha that was the direct influence on what I eventually came up with.
What are you most proud of?
That I didn't have to follow a pattern slavishly.
What advice would you give someone starting this project?
Practice the wrapping of the headpins with non-precious metals first.
