Spiral Craziness

AB inspired me to try something new over Christmas break.  She mentioned a pair of earrings that one of the other students had, and described them to me.  They were tear shaped, and they had thread woven accross them to create a web-like pattern.  I thought they sounded interesting, so I tried making them with my own variation.  I used beads around the edge instead of the spring-like spiral that the originals had.  They worked alright, but they didn't look as good as I wanted them to. I felt like they had failed.

Fastforward to three days ago.  I had an inspiration! I did a little experimentation and I came up with my own variation of the wire! I'm so happy with the way these turned out.

This is the first pair I made.  I think the colors are pretty and they turned out pretty well.

This is the second pair, and I made it today.  It reminds me of a peacock's feathers a little bit.  *Inspiration* I will have to try making peacock feather ones! We'll see what happens.
