On my work bench today- tiny white seashell earrings and a GIVEAWAY!

During the soldering process

Rough fitting the shells

Setting the shells in place


Ready for their photo shoot!

And a zoom out shot of the rest of the mess happening on my workbench (more on that mess later this week!)
The finished product!

    Such adorable little earrings. They remind me of walking the RI beaches and looking for treasures. Wow, I miss RI.
    Great little earrings for jeans or a dress this summer!

    Hi Tara,
    I would love to win those seashell-earrings!
    I am already a public follower so the only thing that remains would be for me to say something about the give-away on my blog or facebook. Maybe I'll have time; maybe not. We'll see.
    Now I have at least one vote.
    Best wishes,
    Anna
