Wire blue earrings

I still need to work on my technique, I was trying to use wire, but its very hard to make the same shape for both of the earrings. They turned out nice, but for sure the earrings are not even. When you are making earrings like that you have to pay attention and make them symmetrical. Still, I will wear them this evening, I like the colors very much.



Autumn inspiration

Looking at the colors of leaves and bushes and some flowers, 
I got an inspiration for my new pair of earrings. These brown,
green, red colors bring some kind of warmth and make you 
feel very romantic.

Supplies in Belgrade

1. If you want to make jewelry in Serbia, its not that easy, but here are some palces where you can get components and beads.

This shop is located in Bulevar Kralja Aleksandra 93. They have lots of components, simple cheap beads and pearls. They also have swarovski crystals, and gemstones. Their tools are pretty expensive, so dont buy them there, but ladies that work there are sweet and helpful.

2. I also heard of this place 
http://www.svetperli.rs/prodavnica/

but I haven't been there yet. By looking through the website I noticed they also have gemstones and crystals, as well as the components. But their tools are expensive. The shop is located in Kosovksa street

3.If you are looking for the tools, there is a shop
http://www.wobyhaus.co.rs/
There you can find all the tools, or if they dont have the right ones, I think you can look up in the shops like that one. Also I found there the bozes that I use for my beads and components.
