Fun beads for fun earrings

This past Saturday Amie (Kitty Cats and Airplanes) and I met for shopping and crafting. I love our play dates. We exchange ideas and we feed on each other's creativity. And of course we have so much fun!

I'm afraid there was way too much temptation at the craft store this time around, especially in the clearance section. We both an unreasonable undisclosed amount of discounted beads. I just fell head over heels for these fun bubble beads. 

 

They remind me of a traditional French candy called berlingot. Ahhh memories !!

Unfortunately there were only 3. But hey that's enough to make really fun earrings right?


 I gave the third one to Amie: I'm sure she'll make something stunning out  of it and I can't wait to see it.

PS: Still no camera cable for my Nikon. I dug up my old Fuji camera to snap these
