Oops! I did it again.



At the PMC Conference this past June, one of the sessions I attended asked us to think about the things we liked.

I've been thinking about that lately in respect to which pieces of jewelry I wear the most.  In this post I was thinking about the jewelry I wasn't wearing.  Yesterday I posted about changing an earring I never wore into a ring (I just love rings.... wearing them and making them!)  

Today I did it again!  This earring was another one I made in my Arrowmont class.  It was an elongated hoop decorated with gold using the Keum-boo technique.  Keum-boo is a Korean technique that combines 24 carat gold sheet with silver by applying heat and pressure.  This was also another look that I liked but the earrings were just too big and heavy.  

I have a second new ring.  (Now I need more fingers!)
