Longing for Fall Earrings (Reboot)

PROJECT PROJ-DF-E0003
Designer: Deb Floros
Skill Level: Intermediate
These fall-inspired earrings capture the spirit of the season with their earth tones and layered leaf design. You can choose to make the earrings using some paints as accents or choose not to paint and let the natural beauty of the components shine on their own—either way is beautiful!
Reboot: Please note that we did not add the patina paints and gilders paste to the project supplies as these are optional, and are calling this project a "reboot" because we have left off the paints. It will look slightly different from the photo as a result.
