I hope that you'll forgive my rather hasty post today for the Art Jewelry Elements Mismatch Monday :: Halloween Edition. I worked on a couple pair while listening to the hurricane storm alerts. And I quickly snapped a few pictures. Not the best, but I figure you all can give me a little indulgence in editing today.This is my first attempt at creating mismatch earrings, and I have to say that this was out of my comfort zone as I like things to match up!
But here's a fun thing I discovered during this project. I don't know about the rest of you guys out there who make earrings, but I always seem to have a bowl full of one earring in a set. I love creating a pattern, but I HATE to copy it! I know I've mentioned this before, but I don't follow instructions to the letter, nor do I cook exactly like the recipe. So even when I am the one that creates the earring pattern, I just might not copy it exactly! So I think I discovered that mismatching earrings just might be a new thing for me.
As I am writing this post the trees are bending sideways in my yard. We are on the coastline of CT and hurricane Sandy is approaching our shores. The expectation is to lose power later today, and so I'm squeezing in as much blogging as I can before I get the plug pulled on me. I will pre-schedule a couple of posts for the week. But in all likelihood I won't make it around to all my favorite blogs for a little bit. But I'll be back online as soon as I can. To all those in the storm's path - be safe!
