june ear bling

This month's technique:  hammered gold.

I shaped the hoops first from the wire and then hammered all but the hooks at the top.  I didn't use any special jewelry-making tools.  Just a plain, old hammer straight from my toolbox.  And, yes, I have my own toolbox....and I acutally use the tools inside from time to time (for more than making jewelry).  I added a little mint-colored bead for a finishing touch.
