Etsy : Earrings




This week's earrings are these pink and wine red bells from Veerle Maes from nevousinstallezpas on Etsy. Veerle is from Belgium and creates the most fantastic jewelry from threads and fabrics. I met Veerle on a craft fair in Maastricht two summers ago, so that I could admire her crocheted jewels in real life and where I bought these beautiful earrings from her. They are made from crocheted balls and real dyed silk cocoons. I think they are delicious !
Have a look at all this intricate crochet work !

    Veerle infected me on a workshop she gave with this crochet-virus. Can't get rid of it anymore :-)
