Small Origami Earrings - Retro

People love my origami earrings! Believe it or not, this was the first pair I ever created. Because I love all things retro - and because I needed a simple color palette to get started, I created these in black and white stripes with red accents. Each earrings is handwoven one bead at a time; the pair probably took me about two hours to complete.

Each earring measures about 1-and-1/2 inch in width and has a drop of over 2 inches. Because the earrings are constructed using tiny glass beads, they are very lightweight and easy to wear. The ear wires are a lead-safe and nickel-free black oxide (gunmetal).
