Creative Pay-it Forward #2

Sunday's "fog-in" seemed like the perfect time to take on a happy task. I pushed past the gloomy day and worked on the second of ten Creative Pay-it Forward projects. See more about that here.

The person I am making these for has a bubbly personality so I started with a pair of cute, funky earrings to "UpCycle"...

           I decided to glam them up with the addition of these sweet antique lamp-worked beads

           I hand-wrapped them in silver wire to complement the silver hoops and the relaxed vibe...

...using white, blue and citrus green beads to work with the existing lacquered rings

I think these turned out so cute. I hadn't planned on making earrings for everyone, but I am having too much fun working with my huge inventory of beads and matching the earrings to the person! I can't wait for the recipient to receive her surprise in the mail!! How do you choose to pay-it-forward?? Have an abundant day everyone!
