Hello, everybody!
I want to show you new earrings which were created in collaboration with my younger brother.
Once I've bought very cute copper fircones and looked at them thinking of design. I had some ideas but they were not amazing, so I was waiting till I'd get better one )
And one day I showed these fircones to my younger brother, asking him if he has any idea. Yes, he had! He described me what he was thinking about and I started to work!
I've made graduated pins. They were just looking like a pile of ordinary pins and this made me laughing: instead of gorgious peace of jewelry I've produced a pile of pins!
But in fact that was a rather long job, as all pins - one by one - had to be gradually cut, hammered and rounded.
The next step was creating patina of needed color. And hat was a very respronsible moment, as usually I use other substances and get other colors. That was the first time for me, and I wanted my Designer to be fully satisfied with the result. So I was a bit nervous.
The process of greening looked like this:
It took longer time than I expected - the whole day for greening and night for drying. But in the morning I was happy as the color was perfect!
The next rutine was sealing the patina with varnish - every and each needle was covered twice.
And finally I could assemble the earrings! A bit of wire-wrapping - and here they are!
I've got wonderful unusual earrings and I'm happy that my Designer is also happy ))))
The earrings appeared to be very stylish, and I guess, boho and hippie style lovers would like them as I do )
As one my friend said these earrings have New Year's mood. But I'm sure that they are good for any season.
