So here is what Quinn gave me:
And here is what came up with:
For this first necklace, Quinn said that the brass heart charm meant a lot to her as she bought it while living in Mexico. She asked that I add a red charm of sorts. I figured, why add one when you can add two?! How I love red coral.
Next was this super cute little gold squirrel and nut charm duo. I cut the nut part off of the bottom of the squirrel charm and filed it smooth, and came up with a cute little pairing. I didn't need to add anything else - it was already precious as-is!
Then was this rad brass octopus. What should go with an underwater creature? Well, a pearl of course!
Lastly was this precious little gold bird. This was actually from a pair of super cute earrings that Quinn had bought in Kansas... the little bird hung in between a gold ring as if it was in a cage or something. I have actually been playing with some of my own materials since I first saw these earrings to make something similar. Anyway, here is it's recreation!
Oh, and Quinn also gave me what was left of a plastic, yet totally realistic looking, amber necklace she bought abroad. Done and done!
So, do you have any orphaned earrings that need a second chance? Let me know and I would love to reincarnate them for you! Holla!
Great work! Makes me think of what I can do with my own orphaned earrings. Thanks for posting that.
