Made from recent LB purchases. The owls are SO cute, I had to make earrings for myself!(Note: the crystals look better in person.)
What a difference the background makes!

Vintaj owls, delicate copper chain, 24ga copper wire, 4 & 6mm antique luster opal crystals. Earwires are 20ga Cu wire.Read the comments (or add your own)
