paper bead earrings!

I bought these beautiful earrings from my friend Sharon Borsavage of Livewire Jewelry. In fact, I have purchased many pieces of her jewelry! I adore her jewelry, it really speaks to me. I love what Sharon does with wire, beads and cloth. This pair of earrings particularly called to me because of the color and my interest in paper & fabric beads. I'm planning a creative swap around the idea of making & trading some! My earrings were actually a collaborative effort. Carolyn Saxby made the beads out of Tyvek and Sharon purchased these beads and made them into the earrings with wire & beads, so fab. I promised I would have Steven take some photos of me wearing them . . .


And of course we could not take just one photo!
Click on any photo for a closer look.


These earrings make me feel wonderful! 
They are the longest pair of earrings I own, but so lightweight . . .
and oh so interesting and beautiful! 


They make me smile.
