Cowrie Shell Earrings

I made a batch of cowrie shell earrings. I used two different sizes of shells. The first photo is one of the large shell earrings. The second photo is one of the small. I'm working on the packaging and will have them up for sale soon.

Modified Cowrie Shell Silver Cuff Bracelet

I did not make this cuff, only slightly modified it. It is my favorite piece of jewelry! I am going to make some like it to sell; I found a decent silver distributer. I originally got this from a seller or African-themed jewelry at a cultural events conference in 2003. It came w/the cowrie set in but the side beads were black and smaller. Eventually they fell out. I added current brown side beads w/super glue a few years ago.

Trimmed Eyebrows & Big Eyes

I have really big eyes and some days they look bigger than others LOL. I tamed my eyebrows a bit today. They are still uneven; I like to keep my look just a little untamed. It is amazing to me how a slight eyebrow modification can really set my eyes off but still give me an earthy, natural look.
