Today was a little colder, but we didn't let that stop us from exploring North Carolina. We went on a ferry to Ocracoke Island, a small island about an hour and a half South from where we are staying, accessible only by ferry. We had a picnic lunch then stopped at a bead store. We missed our ferry back so we stayed on the island a little longer, but the island had a nice little town so we just sat and had some coffee. It was another nice relaxing day.
I used a couple of the beads I bought today to make earrings. We were in a rush to make the ferry (which we missed in the end) so I basically ran around the bead store like a mad woman grabbing all I could see in 5 minutes. I came back with a decent amount of beads, and I really like them all. Not bad for 5 minutes, huh?
These earrings are simple, maybe even similar to a lot of others I've made. I'm not ashamed that they aren't super crazy, they are fun but simple and I love this color combo.
I have also been using gold a lot more often these days, so experimenting with this color combination on a gold wire is fairly new for me.
Now I'm off to make a lovely Friday night dinner with my friends.
Love and Beads,
Eve
