Torch patina on copper earrings

I recently took a class at Kaitlin’s Creative Cottage http://thundermoonstudios.wordpress.com/kaitlins-creative-cottage-classes/where we experimented with copper embossing. Everyone else in the class made wall art but as soon as I got my hands on the copper I knew that I wanted to use this technique in my jewelry making! As you can see from the picture I started with the sheet copper and then fashioned it into these funky earrings. This is one of the reasons that I love to take a variety of classes and not just jewelry making classes. Jewelry classes and continued learning are awesome and I love them, but every once in a while when I can I like to venture into other creative spaces…you never know what will inspire the Muse!
