Artist's Comments

Not the best quality my camera took, but I've been messing around with jewelry making and I got around to doing this with 20 gauge wire for the drop, and 24 gauge wire for the chainmaille and the wrap around the pearls.

I'm not very good at it yet. But it has taught me that I'm far too heavy handed. I had to discard at least 3 feet of wire trying to do this because I kept pending it beyond repair. But hopefully this taught me to be a bit lighter with my hands.

Anyway, if you have any tips, I'm all ears.

I swear, before I clicked on this - I thought it was some kind of torture device... Maybe I should stop reading teh scary novelz :o

PS - Very pretty earrings, upon further inspection ;)

haha it probably has something to do with the tree branches in the background and the very gloomy lighting. At first glance, I can see how this would be scary :o

Thank you :) I'm not very good with wire work, and I hope to only get better from here. I'm really glad you enjoyed it :)

The most I can do with wires is splice them together after my rabbit [link] chews through them. My cell phone charger is still on the fritz.
You, however, seem to have a natural talent for it :D No joke.

That is one beautiful rabbit. So cute too ^^

Thank you so much for that word of encouragement. I was looking at them with a critical eye, but what you've said was definitely a boost to the confidence :aww: I can only get better from here on out.

:heart:

Thank you again, and it's no problem. The truth is those are way cooler than any dangle-ie earrings I own.

All EARS she says. Earrings. LAGGALAGGALAGGALAGGA

But hey, for being "heavy handed?", this is pretty neat. And I too thought this was some sort of torture device at first.

Though I imagine if you got caught in a tree branch wearing those things, it could be. XD

THAT'S.

JUST.

GREAT.

PFfthahahahhaa I didn't even notice, oh lawed.

Thanks :) I did have to throw away three feet of wire because of my heavy-handedness but I think I'm getting the gist of it.

Oh god, I've gotten jewelry stuck on tree branches before (totally the tree's fault) and it's quite painful. Hilarious, but still hurts XD

I think I can understand.

My long as all get out headphone wire gets caught on stuff all the time. How it hasn't been ripped out of the damn thing yet is a mystery to ALL
