Freeform Two Colour Wire Earrings

by Heather Saxon.

I love working with wire; bending, coiling, twisting, making it do what I want it to do, and I made these earrings using 24 gauge Artistic wire in aqua and lemon coiled on a narrow mandrel.

I made the headpin by making three tiny coils on one end of a length of 20 gauge wire to hold the wire bead and then attached to earwire.

The colour combinations are almost endless, try orchid and gunmetal, black and silver and one of my favourites, fuchsia and tangerine.

TIP: Knitting needles make wonderful mandrels.
