Tellisin ühest kohast Marilyn Monroe pildiga kivid ja tükk aega ei teadnud, mida nendega teha. Siis koitis mul mõte, et teeks neist kõrvarõngad ja lisaks pitsilise helmestest äärise kaunistuseks. Liimisin kivid riidele, siis tegin seemnehelmestest ümbrise ja lisasin helmestest pitsilise äärise. Siis tekkis mul mõttepaus. Arutasin omaette, et kas teha helmestest lihtne aas, kuhu saaks kõrvarõngakonksu panna või teha midagi silmatorkavamat.

Lõpuks läksin silmatorkavamat teed ja tegin kõrvarõngastele kettidest riputusmehhanismi ning ühendasin need kõrvarõngakonsuga.

Megasuured kõrvakad tulid, aga kõrvas on nad metsikult ilusad. Sellised statement kõrvakad, mis on just minu alter ego stiil 😀

I ordered Marilyn Monroe cabochon’s a while and didn’t know what to do with them. Finally I decided to make earrings out of them. I glued the cabochones to a backing material, surrounded them with beads and as a finishing touch I added a seed bead edge to the earrings. That edge gives a lacy look to the earrings. Then I paused to think what to do next. Should I do a simple hoop with beads and put a ear hook thru it or should I do something a bit more complex?

Finally I decided to do something more complex and I added a chain to the earrings and then added ear hooks. The earrings are huge but they are gorgeous. I think of them as statement earrings and they are soooo my style 🙂
