So, this weekend, I was out in the yard trimming the hedges alongside my husband. My job was to that the hand held clippers and clip the Hemlocks that run along the back of the yard. I am so not a fan of working in the yard but I was out there to work, so work I would. There is a section of these bushes that sit really close to a flower bed we have that holds impatience and roses. Well, the Hemlocks were starting to take over the space and hide the beauty of all the pink flowers we had there. Well, then I started thinking....pink flowers....earrings....and next thing you know, an idea was born.
I had picked up these flower beads a while back with the intention of trying to make something with them, I just had not been inspired before now. As I sat down with my garden in mind, I put together the following earrings...I used the pink flower bead as the focal point. Next, I added a Swarovski peridot crystal bicone to act as a leaf, then, I used a sterling silver swirl to represent the stem, and a Swarovski crystal briolette to imitate morning dew. I just love the result. They are so delicate. To me, it is like bringing the outdoor garden with you all day.
What do you think?
