New earrings, and I really mean it this time!

You dressed up a Guinea pig? The dog I can understand, but a guinea pig? My cats would shred me if I ever even thought of doing that to them. Especially Topaz. No mere humor would DARE do that to her. Phil would just be disgusted.

Great earrings! I looked at them and thought "too hard" -- you did a great job!

vj found this in rec.crafts.beads, from "Beadbimbo" :

**sigh** i've looked and looked at that pattern, trying to figure out how to simplify it - because i don't care for square wire and all the "fussy" stuff you have to do at the top, to deal with all those pieces of wire. but i have to admit, yours are gorgeous!

i'm going to a workshop this weekend, and then do some intensive question-asking afterward. i'll share whatever i manage to pull out!

I was caught so off-guard by the Guinea pig that I forget to tell you the earrings are stunning!!

The earrings are a lot easier than they look! They're not hard at all! I promise!

My hubby says guinea pigs are like pet rocks that eat and poop. Butterbean's pretty laid back about getting dressed up. As long as I give her a snack!

Hi Vicki,

I HATE rosettes, but had to try these. I'd even wear them. I may try to do something different with the top though too. I'm still thinking on that.

Have fun at your workshop and be sure to post some pictures!

**chuckle**

Butterbean looks happier than Spike, and the earrings are terrific!

Love those earrings! You really are good.

Thanks for the laugh to close my evening. You guinea pig is adorable and the dog obviously loves you. LOL

ooh I like those!

Maybe I will take wire work at William Holland next year (got my catalog today!)

And Butterbean is toooo cute! I think Spike just adapts that look to get sympathy!

Heck I can only get one of my cats to keep a collar on!

Several years ago I had a male cat who dearly wanted to go outside and ........... well, whatever. (He was neutered so I didn't have a fear of kittens.) I decided to get a harness and attach a leash. Yeah, right. He squirmed out of the harness backwards, turned around and sprayed the bejeebers out of that harness.

I got the message and ditched the soggy harness.

All wonderful, Jerri!

Ooohhhhhhh.. those are sooooo nice.... do you take bribes? Diana
