    These are pretty! Here in football chased Texas Fridays or other game days are wear school colors. These earrings are perfect for that!

    I really like these, lots of sparkle and movement. And of course that color…

    Granny Nancy says:

    Oh yes, very pretty. I love earrings that dangle and sparkle for special occasions. I wish there were kits for making Christmas earrings without having to spend so much for all the “fixins.”

    Sparkle and shine! Love the color you’ve used and also all of the color choices in the lantern beads. Endless possibilities.
