Match or Mix Halloween Earrings
Since seasonal jewelry often has a whimsical sense of fun, try experimenting a little by mixing and matching. Here's an example of what I'm talking about with these candy corn and pumpkin lampwork beads (from DD Hess), which I used for making earrings for Halloween. Wear a matching pair or mix them up and wear one of each.

I made these earring using 24 gauge round gold-filled wire that I curled on the end to form a wire coil head pin, then added the beads, and finished the top of the earrings by using the wire wrapped loop technique. Once the dangle part of the earrings were assembled, I just added a gold-filled ear hook.

So have some fun and mix it up this Halloween season!
