I might have been a little mistaken when I predicted that my love for copper would pass when the sterling arrived. Silver is nice and I personally prefer to wear silver myself, but when I start making jewelry, I find copper in my hands time and time again. This time I added some semi-precious stones to copper, which I have mainly in green colors. Now this seems to contradict my previous posting, where I said that green is not one of my preferred colors. Well, the truth is that I do like green; I just don't wear it a lot. But since I have a lot of green jewelry stuff, I can only hope that there are many more other people who do wear green more often than I.
This new pair of earrings is completely hand crafted by me, meaning that I have finally learned how to make ear hooks, which in itself is fairly simple and quick. I only messed up one hook before making this pair. For stones I have used unakite, which came as heart-shaped beads. I very much dislike all kinds of special shaped beads, such as star, heart, moon, flower, etc. so imagine my surprise when I found them in my package. I must have been distracted by its marvelous color, which is not displayed very well in the given photograph. When uploading this picture I noticed a pair of wrist warmers, which I knit a few months ago. I will show you the picture of them too, so you can decide for yourself, whether they match or not. I will be out of the country for a week, so you probably won't hear from me in a while, but when I return, I might have something else to show.
