First Peacock Earrings!

Such a productive Sunday! My friends are the best, especially when they commission me to make fun things for them!

My friend Danielle is going to be a peacock for Halloween (fun right?). She asked me to make her some handmade jewelry to accent her costume. Here's my first try using peacock feathers! Danielle has sensitive ears and can't wear heavy earrings. With this in mind I used Sterling Silver 3" threader earrings as a base, and kept it simple. About 3.5" peacock feathers strung with green/purple glass beads. I think they'll look great with her costume and even better for a night out.

I can't wait to get these shipped out to her in Maine...and I know she'll rep me like crazy on the Colby College campus!
