New Earring Monday Weeks 9 & 10

It's a good thing that I've set this earring challenge up for myself because I need to keep on making new things at a steady pace.  There are some exciting things coming this spring and I need to make sure that I have enough stock for them all!

Since Mother Nature refuses to release Minnesota from her icy grip, I decided to focus on some more springy designs for this week's reveal.

First up is a pair that features some cute little polymer clay discs from Heather Powers of Humblebeads.  I got these as part of a set that I used in a bracelet last month, now your earlobes can get in on some bright fuchsia love!  I chose the white and fuchsia striped ones with the great lime green on the ends (I do love me some green!).  I added in a foliage inspired bead cap and dangled a little trio of Swarovski crystals and a little glass leaf on the bottom.  (Eric says they remind him of little eggplants, LOL!)

My second pair is all about new spring foliage.  I matched up some cool green mosaic-looking mystery beads (they came from a thank you mix so I have no clue what they are made of) and little fern charms in brass.

I hope you enjoy this little taste of spring things to come... at least I hope Spring is really coming!
