give give give

I'm going to try doing a giveaway on my blog for the first time today! woo! I ran a small "earring bar" at a friend's party over the weekend. I showed people how to make a basic pair of earrings with headed pins and fishhook ear wires. People really seemed to get into it and in the end all the people with pierced ears ended up walking around with new earrings made by their own two hands! It was fun and of course I had to make a some examples. This pair turned out quite cute - sparkly, simple, with a little tiny bit of detail in the bronze coloured decorations on either side of the bead. So, I'm offering this pair of earrings to someone who comments on this post :-) I'll pick someone randomly from the comments and let you know by Thursday. (The ear wires and pin are silver plated.) Here are some photos:

I have no pierced ears! Lovely thing to do though, the earring bar. Excellent!
