As I have more bead embroidery backing now, I had to move it to a different box and found some glass cabochons in the old one that I had missed taking out. Two of them were gifts from the store, but there were also these dragon eyes that I had completely forgotten about. I still had the colors for the bezel from some other projects and all the three kinds of beads for the "reptile skin" were from two of the surprise mixes that I like to order, so that worked out nicely

These dragon eyes don't scare me... they look friendly when set in these beautiful earrings.

Thank you all! One thing I'm not sure of is if I should oxidize the earwires. I tried leverbacks first, in copper and brass, but they were too small for these, so I made earwires myself.

I vote for oxidizing! I think it would look good with the bead colors. Dawn

And the finish of the beads, too. I'm never sure about earwires and what people prefer.

Thank you, Diane!
Thank you, Irith, it's always good to be backed up. I'm going to do it then.
