Some DIY jewelry--earrings

[twu]

Yesterday, I sat down and made some earrings for myself and for my bridesmaids.

I'm pretty happy with them. I'd just like to find some nicer gold findings instead of the cheap hooks I used.

Those are very pretty, nice job!

I dont think the hooks look bad, but you will barely see them when they are being worn anyway.

Very very nice...

Have you tried fire mountain gems? There prices are amazing!!!

[StarCoveter]

Oh I like them a lot! Artbeads has a ton of stuff and no s&h and no min. order. That's where I plan on getting my stuff to make my jewelry.

Very nice. I really like the gold.

Great job TWU!!! But I would expect nothing less from OneWed's resident Fashion Diva!!!!
I love both sets and I know your BM's will too!

Thanks everyone :) You guys will let me know if I make something hideous, right? LOL, I like constructive criticism too so that I can improve!


Rather than starting a new thread, I'll post some of my new designs here. I'm giving these away as Xmas presents. These ARE NOT FOR MY WEDDING, but they are DIY, so I figured it was appropriate.



First off: earrings & necklace for my brother's fiance. These are meant as wedding jewelry, but since it's a suprise gift, I won't pressure her to wear them. I didn't have any silver earring hooks when I made these, so I'll have to go buy some!

You're so talented! Everything looks great! I especially love the set you made for your brother's fiance!

Thanks everyone! I'm really excited to give the wedding necklace to my brother's fiance. She is super cool, and I hope she likes it.

they look nice,but u have to chose the color based on that of the bridemaid`s dress..i dont think there is a problem with the hooks..go on with ur creativity ..u can do all by urself
