Hello friends! It's time to reveal my earrings which I’ve made for the monthly challenge «We’re All Ears”).
This month, our host Erin suggested: “use the EGG as your Muse for April”. Originally, I was going to cross-stitch a small Ukrainian pattern on a piece of Aida and then wrap it around a metal disc and use for my earrings.
I have a book with tons of Ukrainian cross-stitch patterns: they would perfectly mimic Pysanky’s egg design. But, unfortunately, I didn’t have time to do it. Maybe, next time…
Here are the earrings I’ve made:
“Pretty Little Eggs” earrings. To “make an egg”, I used yellow glass faceted beads which I slid on a headpin between the two white plastic bead cups; I also attached a wire coiled link to each egg to make the design more interesting.This month, our host Erin suggested: “use the EGG as your Muse for April”.

ReplyDeleteOH! That is so perfect, Miss Oksana! I love love LOVE that you made an actual egg with the whites and yolks...and it is a bit scrambled on the bottom. Very fun! Thanks for playing along! Happy Spring! Enjoy the day! Erin
