Medici Drop

In case you're new here or missed it, you may want to take a scroll down the side bar and click on the photo of medici drop earrings where you will find a free pdf tutorial with my latest variation.



While this pair has the newly added texture it does not have the sparkle of the 2 mm crystals. They really are a stellar addition to the design. Adding just the smallest touch of sparkle can make a huge difference. Give it a try!

No cubic zirconia teardrops? Lot's of different drops work perfectly. Raid your stash, you'll most likely find a suitable replacement.

Oh, and if you've made some, please send me a picture. I suspect it may be the most made item in the book, and I'd love to see what you did with them.

    Thank you very much for sharing the new version!!! I love the earrings in the book, and I’ll do these.

    I have done some but I haven’t found the drops, so they are quite different. Because my computer doesn’t allow me to email thought the blog, I post my photos here, I hope you don’t mind.

    Two versions, and a Medici necklace.
