Earrings for Christmas and a giveaway!
I got cornered by the school Christmas fete commitee a while back. "Jorthy!" they cried. "Make something for our Christmas stall!" I agreed because (a) it's for a good cause and (b) I'm scared of them. Hee hee!
So here I am sat today, beading away merrily. I haven't made jewellery in ages, and I'd forgotten how much fun it is. Now, I'm not one to keep the fun to myself, so I've decided as a wee Christmas thank you to all my readers for reading my blog, I'd give a pair away. So leave a comment before sundown on Friday, stating which pair you'd like (pearl, chrystal, red or green), and follow my blog and you could be in with a chance!
I'm happy to send overseas (although they may not make it there by Christmas). The hooks are stainless steel, just in case anybody is like me and can't wear the cheapy stuff.
Good luck, and thanks for entering!
UPDATE: Congrats to Cat, the winner!

They are all so lovely but I think I like the green the best! Merry Christmas to you too!
ReplyDeleteI would love to win! The ear-rings look great. It is hard to choose between the red & crystal, bit I think the crystal would win out. Happy jewelery-ing Jorth!
ReplyDeleteOooh pretty.
ReplyDeleteIt's hard to choose between them but I think I like the pearl ones slightly ahead of the clear crystal.
Gorgeous!
Beautiful, would love a green pair just in time for Christmast
ReplyDeleteLovely! I like the crystal :D
ReplyDeleteOh, the crystal are lovely and would go with a bracelet that my mom had made for me recently. Merry Christmas to you!
ReplyDeleteI honestly don't know which I like most!
ReplyDeleteI totally love the red one!!! The pearl one is super cute too! You are so creative!
ReplyDeleteJust how clever your are. Thinking the pearl ones would be lovely for Xmas day up in Brissie. Any chance on you doing a tutorial on the creation of these????
ReplyDeleteThese are gorgeous! I'd love the pearl ones.
ReplyDeleteThe green ones are oh so perfect... so green. :)
ReplyDeletep.s. the fete people should be scared of you, with all this spontaneous artistry!
They are all so lovely and I was tossing up between red and crystal, but I think the red would be a great pop of colour for me
ReplyDeleteYou are very clever, aren't you? Is there anything you can't make?
ReplyDeleteThanks for giving us all a chance to own something so pretty. If I won, I'd like a surprise. I love them all.
They all look so pretty - you're so clever!
ReplyDeleteThe pearl ones are definitely my favourite x
Lovely! I dig the pearls
ReplyDeleteThey're lovely. I'm sure you would not want to ship that far so I am just going to ask lots of questions to make my own:
ReplyDeleteHow do you get the pearls to stay where they should?
Did you just close the ends with squishy beads? Or did you melt the wire?
What strength is the jewellery wire?
The pearl ones are so pretty!
ReplyDeletethese are so pretty, i love the pearls!
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas to you and your family. I've really enjoyed all your sewing this year and particularly love the red earrings.
ReplyDeleteMerry Christms to you and your family. I'e also enjoyed all your sewing and knitting all year and you've given me lots of inspiration. I really like the crystal earrings. I hope that your earrings are a huge success at the Christmas fete!
ReplyDeleteThese are lovely, love the pearl ones! I was going to make some earrings for my mum, to add into her christmas pressie, hope you don't mind if I borrow your idea?
ReplyDeleteAlso I am a follower :)
LOL didn't think you were scared of anyone ;)
ReplyDeleteGive-away wise... I love the pearl ones :)
Love the christmas colours
ReplyDeleteThey are all looking really great but the last pair of them is my favourite. I love pearls and those are looking very, very nice and for Christmas they fit to everything.
ReplyDeleteDefinitely love the dark green! The pearls are pretty too.
ReplyDeletelove the dictionary page you chose for this too. ;)
I love the pearl ones. I'm in the US but as they would just be for me I'm not too worried about how long it would take for them to get here. They're really lovely!
ReplyDeleteEven though green is my absolutely most favorite colour ever I would have to choose crystal, I an see myself wearing those with so many outfits, your earrings are ab fab!
