Pink Sugar Skull Earrings, Day of the Dead Halloween Handmade Jewelry


skull earrings pink fuchsia halloween day of the dead

The fun PINK SUGAR SKULLS handmade earrings feature pink Czech glass skulls and fuchsia pink Austrian crystals - unique Day of the Dead and Halloween jewelry for women.



The one of a kind PINK SUGAR SKULLS earrings are full of spectacular spooky fun, perfect for Day of the Dead (Dia de los Muertos) festivities, Halloween parties . . . or for any time of the year you feel the need to wear trendy skull jewelry! The radiant earrings feature two-sided pink Czech glass skull beads and fuchsia Austrian crystals. The unique skull beads were created with a base of translucent light pink glass. A charming sugar skull design was impressed into the glass on both sides of the beads. To add an aged look the pink glass was given a shimmering matte, sea glass tumbled look with some “crackles” and “pits” (that don't disturb the integrity of the glass). A metallic pink Picasso finish was applied to bring out the details of the faces of the skulls. It settled into the recesses, highlighting the amazing floral eyes, an inverted heart shaped nose, the grinning mouth and any other recessed areas of the skull beads. Since the sugar skulls are two sided, the earrings look beautiful from any angle when worn. All sugar skulls need a bit of sparkle so faceted fuchsia pink Austrian crystals were used. Resembling a crown, just above the sugar skulls are glittering fuchsia Austrian crystals set in silver plated rondelles. To add even more exquisite sparkle, a faceted Austrian crystal bicone, also in fuchsia pink, is snuggled into the top of each rondelle. Sterling silver French hook earwires finish the earrings. The PINK SUGAR SKULLS earrings were carefully designed and handmade by Catherine of Shadow Dog Designs for the woman who wants to add ghoulishly fun jewelry to add to her unique skull jewelry collection.

Wild Woman Earrings, Ceramic Lampwork Crystals Handmade Jewelry Gift


WTF wild woman ceramic earrings lampwork swarovski crystals

The WILD WOMAN handmade earrings feature artisan ceramic drops, artisan lampwork glass beads and Swarovski crystals - unique jewelry for women.

Let them know exactly how you feel whenever you wear these absolutely fun, one of a kind WILD WOMAN handmade earrings! Perfect for the woman who is ready to tackle the world and loves smile-inducing, boho chic jewelry, the lightweight earrings were created with artisan ceramic drops with am etched wild woman stick figure, artisan lampwork glass nugget beads, leaf-style pewter bead caps, glittering Swarovski crystals and sterling silver. The hand carved ceramic shield drops have a wonderful rustic look. A fierce wild woman with raised arms, wide eyes and upright hair was etched into beige clay. Dots are found along the edge of each dangle. The etched areas were carefully painted with a dark brown paint to bring out the design and then fired in a kiln at high heat for strength and durability. The backside of the dangles was given a very light wash of brown. Since the dangles were individually handmade, they are very similar but not exactly the same.  Complementing the wild woman dangles brilliantly are artisan lampwork glass bead nuggets and sparkling Swarovski crystals. The lampwork beads were created with a lilac plum glass with a bit of beige. Fine silver raised dots were added around the middle for extra eye appeal. The lampwork beads are nuggets so they are not completely round. Capping the top of each nugget is a pewter bead cap with a leaf design. Above each bead cap is a mega-sparkle faceted Swarovski crystal bicone in a color called “lilac shadow,” a combination of lilac and clear crystal with a light gold coating. Sterling silver French hook earwires with an added lilac shadow crystal for extra sparkle finishes the fun earrings. Carefully designed and handmade by Catherine of Shadow Dog Designs, the WILD WOMAN earrings are a wonderful gift for the woman who loves unique jewelry, loves life and has more than a bit of a free spirit wild woman in her.
