Off late, I have become very indecisive and I have been going in circles. A new semester with a new curriculum and the prospect of going back to school has left my brain muddled. I am unable to make up my mind on smaller things. For instance, up until a couple of hours ago, I thought I was not going to do this month’s we’re are ears challenge. But here I am writing a post on Spoonflower earrings. These are some earrings that I made over the last 3 months. They incorporate circles of some sort and are in colours that match the inspiration.
Spoonflower Inspiration
Our inspiration for this month were the Spoonflower, circle print fabrics. They were 10 in number and we could choose 1 or more to create our earrings.

This first pair is a variation of a similar disc earring I made at the end of last year. I am not sure if I postedthe first, blue version on this blog. It is made of patterned paper on which I doodled. The paper is sealed with dimensional magic. While making this style, I thought it would be a good idea to do a tutorial. So I made a series of video clips. Then yesterday, in a moment of pure craziness I deleted them all. HaHaa (cue evil villanic laughter) muddled brain you say?
I attended a Trend forecasting workshop recently. We worked on a series of assignments and the colours that emerged to be the strongest for the next year through our analysis were blush pink and peach. However, I am not a big fan of these colours personally and as an extension would have preferred a stronger colour accent in these earrings.
I have made many variations of this Lotus stud- flat agate bead till now and this is one of them. They are extremely simple to make and look great. I bought a set of these studs last year but I haven’t been able to find them ever since. These Lotus earrings are supposed to be the derivative of the print of the lotus leaf and flower.
Those are my two Spoonflower earrings. Do hop over to the Earrings everyday blog to see what the other participants have made.
I hope you found it interesting
Cheers
