Today's trinket is a pair of Valentine-inspired earrings for my daughter. She went with me to the bead shop last week and wanted these lovely ruby glass hearts more than anything in the entire store! I traded her a couple of amber leaves for these two from her strand and set them aside for this secret project. They looked a little sad and plain until I introduced them to a couple of strands of silver chain with heart-shaped links. I think they look like they were made for each other - a perfect pair!
Just a quick reminder - tomorrow is Friday and that means another Creative Corner article for your reading pleasure. Be sure to visit and learn my "Five Tips for Endless Artistic Inspiration." Pay it forward and tell a friend!
OH Beth, seriously... see now I want to copy those. I'd like to think that will be taken as a form of flattery. I love the color red (and I'm not a red fan-probably because they are ruby) and the heart loops.. and OMG what is that they are hanging on?
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful post!
Pfft! Copy away :)
ReplyDeleteThe earrings are hanging on an tiny antique soup tureen that belonged to Paul's grandmother. Funny you should ask about it because I was thinking today how odd it was that everyone was getting an intimate look inside my house (and all the junk collected) with each trinket post.
Beautiful, Beth Brown. Daughter Brown is lucky to have such a creative mom!
