Nature Inspired Woodland Earrings with Czech Glass
- Organic Beads, Green Leaf Beads, Sterling Silver -

https://www.etsy.com/prettygonzo/listing/459592284/boho-woodland-earrings-green-leaf-purple?ref=shop_home_active_120

These woodland earrings feature Czech glass green leaf beads and purple sunburst ovals. The glass leaves are a bright shade of green, with nice detailing. The sunburst ovals are a dark purple ("purple silk"), with a subtle milky quality. They also have an earthy Picasso finish in dark brown.

Also included in this boho pair are black-veined brown beads carved from organic seeds and lovely sterling silver rondelles. The earring hooks are also silver, with their sterling hallmark on the back wire. To give them a richer and slightly elegant look, I decorated them with sterling silver round beads. They come with clear ear guards for better security when the earrings are worn.

This nature-inspired pair is designed in a classic stack. Each dangle has a green leaf bead with a purple oval above, flanked by a pair of organic seed beads. Separating these elements are sterling rondelles. They add a wonderful touch of light and elegance to the overall woodland tribal style.

The length here is roughly 2.25 inches, including the earrings hooks.

This rustic yet elegantly accented pair of woodland dangles was handmade by me with care, thought, and best wishes for its destined wearer. The earrings come wrapped on a PrettyGonzo card and in a pretty organza bag, all ready for gift-giving to your favorite nature lover—or perhaps yourself!

Cottontail Rabbit In A Bush - Filet Crochet Art Handmade by RSS Designs In Fiber





I live in the Antelope Valley - a High Desert Valley in Southern California surrounded by Mountains (South, West and North) and Desert to the East and I have seen Little Wild Brown Rabbits with White Cottontails running around - usually heading for some bush - or down a rabbit-hole.  I think they are so cute!

So I created a Filet Crochet chart with a Rabbit, small desert plant - surrounded by textured leaves - and Crocheted it!

The finished Crocheted piece is 11 1/4 Inches Wide by 8 1/4 Inches High - and is available in my Bonanza Booth under "Direct From The Artist - Textile Art" , where you can get all the details.

It can be used as:
  • Table Decor
  • Wall Hanging
  • Pillow Top or Applique
  • Sew-on Applique on Bag or Clothing or any Fabrics


Here are some Closeup Photos to see the Filet Crochet details clearly:
