radishes completed

I finished the radish earrings last night and took pictures when I got home from work today while there was still a little light.  (The light box really does better with some natural light coming in the room.)  They'll be on their way tomorrow.  I am so happy with the result!  This was one of the most fun custom orders ever.




Again, for those who may have missed it before or don't already know and are wondering "Why radishes?," the earrings are supposed to be similar to ones that Luna Lovegood wears in the Harry Potter books (and movies it seems like?  I honestly don't remember).  When I started making them, I was not planning to make a second pair to sell, but I definitely want to now.  My biggest question is whether I want to keep them as post earrings or make a dangle version?  If anyone has any preferences/opinions, please let me know.  I think that it would also be fun to try other fruits or vegetables.  Wouldn't little lemons or strawberries with the same tiny green leaves look awesome?  You know that I need another little series haha.  It's something fun to think about and would be easy to work on from time to time, though.  I have a wide range of delica colors.  It doesn't take many of them to make earrings like this.

It will be a bit before I had anything else like this in my shop, but if you want something custom at any time, just let me know.  Have a great weekend!
