Malaysia Wire Jewelry Fan Shaped Earjacket Earrings - Ice Fantasy
Completed this 2 days ago. This is yet another earjacket earrings that you could wear it in several arrangements. I will demonstrate how it can be worn/arranged in this post! 💋
So you could attach the bottom part of the earjacket behind your earlobe, the studs will appeared as though it was floating.
Or you could wear it the normal way, both studs and the earjacket at the front of earlobe. I call this dangling earrings arrangement.
Or you could wear both back to back to create the 3D effect, i.e. one at the front and one at the back of earlobe. Note that the studs earring I have used are just the normal standard stud-earrings, it isn't cut longer to accommodate this Fan Shapred Ice Fantasy Earjacket Earrings, i have specifically made sure this earjacket earrings won't need any special requirements so you could wear this with any studs earrings you already have, it'll fit. :)
Thanks for viewing and i hope you're inspired.

Handmade Motherdaughter Tutu
Right after I completed and shipped my last batch of custom orders (4 PIPA Bangles) , i took one week break from making jewelry to making tutu for my 3 years old and myself! Cause my son has turned 1 year old (I know, how did that happened, right?) and we decided that it's time to take some family photo, and I thought it'd be nice if I could wear a mother-daughter outfit with my daughter, but making a 3 years old to wear what you want is tough, but it's not impossible! I brought her onto my laps one afternoon before she takes her nap (can't do this after her nap, she's usually grouchy after wake up I don't know why), and shown her pictures from Pinterest, then I made her choose what color would she like for her new tutu (take note, I didn't asked her if she want's a tutu, I asked her what color will she like. :P), she told me she would like a purple color tutu (yipee!)
So off I go to purchase 3 shades of purple tulles - lilac, purple and purple red.
I only know how to make no-sew tutu - I have used stretchable headband as base for my daughter's tutu, and ribbon as base for my own. Both tutus has 2 layers of tulles, I have used 1 roll each for my daughter's tutu and 4 rolls each for myself (that's ALOT of work, especially I could only work after kids are asleep, tying those tulles repeatedly is boring I could fall asleep anytime!)
But the outcome is acceptable, aren't they lovely? My daughter won't take it off her, that put a smile on my face!
Oh just another note - I haven't been wearing heels since I was pregnant with my daughter, that's about 4 years plus now, one thing about wearing adult tutu is that, you must have a pair of heels at least 3" tall, I am glad that I finally have a reason to buy myself a pair of heels (oh how I've missed wearing heels lol!)
And here, my boy whom just turned one, breastfeeding mom's consuming coffee latte, just a cup a day alright? Don't get too worked up on that. Cheers!

Wired Chinese Knot Silver PIPA Bangle

| Wired PIPA Bangle |
Thank you for liking #PIPABangle, it's made with variously gauges of 92.5 Sterling Silver wires, and 92.5 Sterling Silver round beads on the bangle itself. The focal is adorned with #Swarovski #navatte beads and #whiteopal #Chatonmontee, that's why it sparkles like there's no tomorrow. 🙈

Handmade Swarovski Elements Statement Necklace

| Almost done, Handmade Statement Necklace, Swarovski Elements |
The focal is almost done, then everything else are going to be less challenging. :) I have to think really hard next time before I take up a project that requires a lot of precisely calculation and tedious work, not that I don't like to, but with a toddler and a baby I can't really stay focus for too long, and it takes longer time to get back in mode each time. 😅
Still excited to see it almost completely nonetheless.
Happy Thursday all! Vanilla #SwissRoll with Raisin goes really well with finest #EarlyGreyTea, thanks #khcalendar for keeping me in check.

Working on the bench Monday
![]() |
| Handmade Statement Necklace - work in progress |
It's #Monday!
Hubs has to check in office early today so I sent Claire to her play school, it's heavy traffic everywhere when I was driving home cause it's rush hour, Nate is not well so he dozed off in the car seat (he'd normally protest just like how his sister used to be when she was a baby when car is in a stationary state), thus the bonus of the day after staying up on and off throughout the night : peaceful quiet drive. I didn't even tune in to my favorite radio station. 😄
Back to the project I am working on.
You might see no progress from yesterday or day before yesterday but there actually are - I am in search for the ideal way of threading all beads and let them stay at where they should be all these whole and I have been cutting lots of wires composing and decomposing elements, hopefully I can have some steps finalized by end of today. ☺️
Hope you have a great week ahead!

Colorful Handmade Ear Jacket Earrings

| Colorful Handmade Ear Jacket Earrings |
I only manage to make one side of the earrings today, and as I was wearing it to capture a photo (requested by customer, earrings will be sanitized later before shipping), I realized that I have forgotten one important thing - with multiple colors Chaton Montees I should reverse the crystal position for the other side of earrings to make them symatrical.
I am lucky to realize this before making the other side of earrings. ☺️

Handmade Ear Jacket Earrings, Finalized design, Wire Wrapped Jewelry
![]() |
| Handmade Ear Jacket Earrings, with height options. |
I am very happy to find that the design is so well accepted, though I must declare it once and for all here:
This design is not my "raw" design, I saw a machine made ear jacket like this on a magazine last year while I was pregnant with my son and for tradition sake, I was not supposed to hand make anything throughout the entire pregnancy, I waited, but started to sketch and brain storming if I were to make something similar with wire wrapping technique, how should I do so.
This design was first materialized on 11 May 2015, and revised yesterday, finalized today.
Just like to take the opportunity to thank you for liking it. :)

Handmade Ear Jacket with Three Height Options, Wire Wrapped Jewelry
![]() |
| Handmade Ear Jacket with Three Height Options - Wire Wrapped Jewelry |
My 3 years old got excited and decided that she wants to have her earlobe pierced after seeing me putting this on - the revised version of Handmade Ear Jacket. 😝
Technically there are 3 height options, but the one closer to the bottom is only suitable for those who doesn't have much earlobes (there are people born without), I am using the middle ones; and the highest height option is for those who has thicker or largerer earlobes.
Overall experience: had lots of fun. :)
Will post more later.

Handmade Ear Jacket, Wire Wrapped Jewelry

Again, it's a variation from my Bridesmaid Earrings Tutorial, using White Opal Swarovski Chaton Montee and Aquamarine Swarovski Chaton Montees. The array of Chaton Montees need to be sturdier and I will fix that in my next attempt.

| Handmade Ear Jacket |
The distance between the earrings post with the jacket is about 0.5", I understand that I should be making a few more length options but I have no idea what measurements should I be looking at right now - do share if you know!

As for the steps to transform that White Opal Swarovski Chaton Montee into stud earrings, be sure to subscribe to de Cor's Handmades Youtube Channel for free jewelry making video tutorials.
And... in case you don't know, I actually post more stuff on my instagram - http://instagram.com/decorshandmades, pop over if you are #instausers too, @decorshandmades or #decorshandmades.

In order to make this pair of simple looking earrings, you might need to anticipate some fair bit of practice, though I do hope you enjoy it!
