Tatted earrings


The first tatted earrings I ever saw were ballet pink, huge, and somehow apologetic-looking, despite their size. I thought they were a really lame idea. But then I got sucked into the online tatting world, and discovered the most beautiful things: intricate, dramatic, and very, very pretty. And then I won this pair in Krystledawne's giveaway! I can't get enough of them; I want to wear them all the time.


There's a lot more loveliness in her Etsy shop, where she also sells handpainted specialty tatting thread - and I was lucky enough to get some of that too.


Tatting weekend, here I come!
