"FANTASTIQUE!" flower pots!


These are some little flower pot earrings I made, using beads, wire and some teeny tiny flower pots. I tried them out in green and lilac wire and I'm still torn as to which I like more. I love the brightness and reality of the green wire but can never say no to anything vaguely purple especially when its so silvery and shiny.

The reason I call them "FANSTASTIQUE" flower pots has a bit of a storey behind it. While out at nocturne in a little french town, where all the artisan shops are open until midnight, I was trying to make my way through a crowd when a french lady was midway through squishing past me turned to my ears and said "Fantastique!" As she took me by surprise, and being slightly socially awkward, I just stared at her blankly briefly before she gave me a thumbs up and I managed to mumble "merci" or something along those lines...

And thank you to my pretty little sister for being my model.


*Now you can buy these here*
