Icicle Redux
Pirate Rubber Duckie is traveling the world - get on the list to take pics with him...i bet by the time he gets to you, all the color will be rubbed off!
After talking to my instructor about the Icicle earring design, she asked me why I was putting the silver balls on the back of the earring, when the flare at the bottom should hold the beads on just fine...and ya know what - she was right...The ball served a purpose on the straight, unflared earrings (you can see those in the pic where they are laying down, cause there was no ball there to hold the beads on)...So, after giving it a try, I have come to like the non-ball look of the new earrings, and that's what I've made for this batch...and that's what you'll be receiving if you've ordered lately...However, should you receive them and you prefer the look with the ball on the back, that is easily remedied -
just return the pair and i'll send you a set w/ balls instead....no harm, no foul...I hope you like the new design, though, cause that's the direction I think I'm going to go with these...I'll get pics of these posted after lunch today...its still drizzling, but at least its warmer out and I don't freeze taking shots outdoors...
What about the Icicle Pendants, tho? Someone asked me yesterday if I still plan on making these, and the answer is 'yes'...I have the one prototype my instructor made, but I'd like to 'explore the space' and see what other designs might work for it...i just haven't spent enough time playing with the metal yet, but I will..first I need to get a few orders taken care of...
Yeah, American Idol was entertaining, I have a few faves already...what I've learned - the white chicks all wear mall jeans and cheap shirts, while the black chicks get dressed up and 'sell' the song with a proper look...the last chick who sang (don't know all their names yet) has a fantastic voice, but she was rather robotic in her delivery...but then Carrie was acused of being a Fembot last year, and she won the whole thang, so I dunno what I'm talking about obviously...
Looking for some Cowbell schwag?
Who does the new James Bond look like?

Hi Donna,
The icicles that you just sent me do not have the little ball at the end and they work just fine.
