Icy chic!



Oh. My. Gosh. I've surprised my own self in being brave enough to break out my GOLD FILLED supplies! I've been chicken for quite a while, for fear of using my "good stuff" and goofing it all up, thus wasting it... but I think I did rather well, if I do say so myself. :D

I stuck to a simple design with these earrings. I've featured ultra icy, uber clear 10mm faceted rondelle glass beads, round GF beads, and tiny scalloped GF bead caps for that extra finishing touch. GF curb link chain that flashes light when in motion. All that bling is suspended from simple yet flirty handcrafted 20g GF ear wires that measure approx. 3/4 inch, filed on the end for comfortable insertion. Total length of earrings from top curve of ear wire to bottom of rondelle is a bold 2 1/4 inches. I tumbled the earrings for several hours for the utmost strength, smoothness and shine!

I'm telling ya, I can visualize these surprisingly lightweight earrings going with all spectrums of style, and I'm enamored with how clear these glass beads are, they remind me of super clear ice and they catch the light beautifully.

These stunners are bold enough for an evening outing, yet simple enough for the office. Dramatic enough for the bold, still yet refined enough for the sophisticated. Whomever wears these, I'd be willing to bet these will be their "go to" earrings... they'll go with everything.
