I mentioned awhile back that I had bought a box of beads at a garage sale. These are some more of them. At the time I thought I'd never use them, just not really my style, but of course I didn't get rid of them! I was looking through them the other day and saw possibility. Wood, bone, & turquoise. Together they all had an organic feel. I mixed them up and started stringing. That's the magic of wire crochet! Just string them up and see what comes out! Copper seemed to be the accent to use with this scheme. I used tarnish-resistant copper wire and added a textured copper washer. The earrings are smaller copper washers that I also added texture to.
I'm sure most everyone already knew this, but I just recently discovered that you can click on the picture and get an enlarged version. This shows a lot more detail!

The color combination turned out well! I agree with you, wire crochet is magic!!
Turned out great. I haven't had success with wire crochet yet, but it's still on my list to perfect. Beautifully done. I love copper.
