Some of my designs start very adventurously, with Big Plans and Grand Ideas... and other times I catch myself absently fidgeting with a scrap of wire and go “hey that’s not terrible, I should do it again” and the this half-finished pair of earrings floats around my workbench for a while until I think “y’know, I could stick some opals on these” and proceed to do just that  

...which is EXACTLY how this pair came into being. 

(I use sterling silver french hooks by default, but I also stock titanium and surgical steel french hooks, high-quality silver-plated leverback findings, and two kinds of clip-on earring thingies, and you can upgrade to any of those .)
