When I was first making jewelry I made earrings sort of because I thought I had to to go along with the necklaces and bracelets. Well that certainly isn't true any more. I have grown to love making earrings and happily spending an occasional day making just earrings. My new found joy in earrings is reflected in the product with lots of fun going on for your ears. Sterling silver is my metal of choice, but I do make a few copper earrings. I use sterling silver lever-back or handmade sterling ear-wires. What is hanging from the ear-wire will vary widely. I use sterling silver parts, swarovski crystals, freshwater pearls, semi-precious stones and many more beadie things. I try to cover the color spectrum while making earrings, so you are sure to find an earring in your favorite color.
