Enameled Earrings

White and pink enamel with pearls
I have become enamored with enamel!
Here are some Springtime earrings I put together on a snowy day in Vermont.
Turquoise enamel with turquoise and olivine
First, I cut the discs from 20 gauge copper sheet.
After the edges were filed smooth, I drilled the holes and gave the discs a dome.
Purple and blue enamel with riverstone and amethyst
I put a couple coats of enamel on, finished the backs and sealed with Renaissance wax.
With 21 gauge wire, I balled the ends to use for ear wires.
I finished it off with wire wrapped gemstones and pearls.
The pink and blue/purple sold within minutes, so I am off to make more!
