Clippings and Cameras

So in preparation for opening my etsy shop I have been creating some new earrings and these I think are some of my favourites, and will be available to buy from etsy in the next few days. My favourite thing about them is that they are so simple and light.

Perfect for anyone who is a bit of a book worm, like me, these clippings give you just a few words from the pages they have been taken from. But still gives you enough to get the book page feel.

And these map clippings are a bit more on the colourful side... and I love them. What makes them even more interesting is the different parts of the map each give a slightly different look. 

One of the things I have been experimenting with on creating the listings on etsy has been the photos of the earrings I make, but I am definitely getting better as I go! My wonderful camera, a sony NEX 3, makes it easy to take amazing pictures with the styles and effects you want without having to know all the technical terms and technics. So I can just point and shoot or play with the settings and experiment.
