So, I was re-organizing my shop and kits...
I had previously listed matching kits for Fans Earrings and Fans Bracelets... the bracelet kits sold, but some of the earrings kits did not. Hmmm...
I thought I might play with them a little. All of the following earrings were worked exactly according to the basic pattern, except when I got to the end, I just strung on a few more beads.
For these first three, I strung on:
1 size 8 seed bead, 1 6mm focal, 1 size 8 seed bead, 1 8mm focal, and ended with a size 8 seed bead.
(Some focals were Czech fire-polished faceted rounds and some were glass rounds, each giving a different look to the earrings.)
For this pair:
1 size 8 seed bead, 1 6mm focal, 1 size 8 seed bead, 1 10mm focal, and ended with a size 8 seed bead.
1 size 8 seed bead, 1 20mmx9.5mm teardrop. and 1 size 8 seed bead.
And, for a bit more drama:
1 size 8 seed bead, 1 6mm focal, 1 size 8 seed bead, 1 20mmx9.5mm teardrop. and 1 size 8 seed bead. (These are my favorites.)
