“Can’t Touch That” Venetian Earrings

I’ve been holding onto these beads for awhile because I kept changing my mind about what I was going to do with them. Earrings were a for sure, but then I started thinking about all the interesting combinations I could create: like including a sparkling red crystal dangle from the ends; maybe add a gold pearl to the top; or what about an aurora borealis crystal on either end? I just kept going around and around with so many ideas.

Finally, I took a good long look and thought, “These are so gorgeous just as they are. Why mess with them?” I figured I’d go as simple as possible and let the beauty of the beads speak for themselves.
