More Dangly Stuff

A long time ago I saw some tatted earrings that I thought were very pretty.  I don't remember where I saw them, I don't have a pattern for them, I don't know who made them...like I said it was a long time ago.  But they have stuck in my mind so I pulled out some thread and a couple of dangly beads and tried to recreate them on my own.  This is the result:

Motif # C2-4

They are made with Lizbeth thread and the dangle beads have both pink and a slight touch of green in them to go with the colors on the threads (it's kinda an aqua/mint green in there next to the pink and blue)

More earrings coming tomorrow :-)

(if interested these are available in my Etsy shop - http://peachtreecottage.etsy.com/ )

  1. They're lovely!
    Did you starch them or anything to stifen them so the design really shows up when they are being worn?

  3. Thanks for the compliments. I thought they would look good for summer too :-)

    I didn't need starch because they are pretty firm without it but I put a light spray of it on them anyway when I set them. They are hanging in the picture, just like if they were hanging on someone's ear.
