Birdie Birthday Earrings

Today is my cousin L's birthday. She's a fun college girl with super cool style and I wanted to gift her with some one of a kind pieces. She's really into earrings, ones that dangle with statement and flair, and sometimes mixes and matches them. With that in mind, I played around with various earring supplies and beads I had on hand, and put together a mis-matched yet similarly styled earring set :)

One earring is a chandelier style with various hanging beads and a fun bird charm. The other one is simpler, has a matching bird charm, and more neutral beads. They can be worn together or separately.

And with a gold wreath card.

I've been spending a lot of time breaking down pieces of jewelry that I own and restyling the pieces with beads and charm supplies that I've purchased. It's a fun thing and I hope to share the styles with you all soon!

Hope everyone has a great weekend :)
