Orbit Drops - Photo Earring Tutorial

A few months ago, I had donated a necklace to my child's school for an auction event to support Art Trek. Art Trek is a local program that helps volunteer parents bring art education into the classroom. The winning bid went to a lovely woman who has supported many local families with her wonderful parenting classes. Being one of the lucky parents to benefit from her sage parenting techniques, I was extra pleased she had the highest bid. She loved the necklace so much she asked me to create a pair of earrings...

This necklace featured beads from Humblebeads and myself, as well as garnet, moonstone, iolite and other semi precious beads, all brought together with some lovely brass wire. Here is how I made the earrings....
