FIORE EARRINGS
These were a huge challenge!! there was a lot of grumbling but I finally did it :) ( this lead to the though of how tutorials should be graded - by winge factor.....) they are a variation on the Fiore earrings at http://www.larkcrafts.com/jewelry-beading/maggie-meister-bonus-project/ - one word of warning though - the tutorial doesn't have how to do the flat circular peyote centre - it just assumes you know - which I didn't - so I am guessing it is in the book - I googled and found a way to do it but I think it might have been slightly different to how the designer did it as my row count was different.....
Swirly Loops lampwork Earrings
I recently went to camp creative ( more of that later) in the evenings we made jewelry :) these are some beautiful earrings I made with beads by Deb from Debbie does beads :)
