Erh, I didn't realize the pictures I took would be so large. I have my camera set on the largest file size on default because I mostly use it for Etsy shop pictures and that tends to make a crisper picture. So...if I kill someone's internet with these then I am sorry.
Here are the Beauty and The Beast rose faux stained glass earrings. They look best with light shining from behind. In the second picture they just look really dark. I made those boxes too (learned from this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bBf957XC-4k I made my own template though so it wouldn't have the x crease in the middle and I made a template for inserts.)
They look way darker without light behind them. It's a design problem for me but I don't think there's much I can actually do about it.
Technically I put the bail for the pendant on backwards but it shows through otherwise. I gave it a 24" chain which might actually be too long but I figured too long was better than too short. I also don't know her necklace length preference.
These are the earrings for my Aunt, I made her a larger smiley (slightly smaller than the rose pendant) that I'm going to back with black felt and attach a pin backing to. Or...maybe I'll attach magnet backing as (knowing her the little I do) she probably already has a smiley face pin. I think I'll do that actually. Smiley face magnet it is.
I literally made that decision in the time it took to type those sentences out.
Oh, I made her boxes out of Trader Joe's paper bag -upcycling!
Since I'm leaving this one public; if anyone comes across this and wants to know where they can have these (or something like them made) here's my etsy shop: http://www.etsy.com/shop/BraveTurtleCreations
