TGIF! (Thank Goodness it's Fall!!!)

As much as I hate to admit it, I am the living incarnation of the stereotypical Autumn addict. The rest of the year just seems to slowly pass me by, and I wander around aimlessly until one day I wake up and I can just feel it in the air...My skin tingles from the invigorating cool breeze, like quenching a thirst I was unaware I had. Time stands still as I look up and see a solitary leaf falling from above... A harbinger of  things to come. Then I know It's time... Time for inspiration. Time for pumpkins, and apples, and breathtaking colors. I feel this sense of closeness to the universe with every deep breath of autumn filled air.

Yes, I am that person. 

Now save your judgement, and look at some earrings! 

Oh la la! I'm falling in love!
Don't you just love fall colors! I scored these beautiful faceted fire polished rounds from Lima Beads for a total bargain during their dollar days sale! Eeeeeep!

How could you not love these?

Next up, I finally used some of my little acorns! I have been hoarding them for so long! I bought the blue lucite leaves from my local bead store, Beads on the Kennebec! I just love the color!

Baby... I'm nuts for your acorns.

 This next pair was actually a happy accident. I was trying to make some earrings that resembled little trees, and I just wasn't feeling it. So, I started putting random colors together, and BOOM! They are super cute. I may have to keep them for myself...

Antique diamond-square ish shaped brass beads from someone's attic.

I have had these beads since middle school... MIDDLE SCHOOL!

The next two pairs were fun to make. I wanted to try something new! And I really like the colors!

Fire polished Czech glass leaf beads! 



Embrace the beauty that is Autumn! Tell me what inspires you!

With love from LoveWix,

Jade
