Christmas Crystal baubles earrings

A friend at work asked me if I could make her something 'Christmassy' well I didn't want to be too obvious and make Santa, or snowmen, so found instructions for these crystal baubles which were just the nice size to fit onto ear wires,
If she doesn't want them I guess I'll just have to pretend I have some of the Christmas spirit and wear them myself lol

Colour variations on theme

Same design for each of the six different colours
Just had a little play with my 'chocolate box' of beads and tried out a pair of earrings with the magenta coloured Czech glass beads, and I was so pleased with it (modest little soul that I am!!) I decided to see what the other colours would look like in the same design, I think they've worked reasonably well.
The scan has made the colours a little less bright than they are in real life, but I hope you 'get the picture'
I used 8mm Czech Glass beads, with Tibetan silver bead caps, and that's all, threaded onto silver head pins and attached to the earring wires.
Once I got the initial design put together it took me approx 11/2 hours to make all 6 pairs,
They were so simple and easy to make I might make these into kits for peeps to have a go at if I ever get to do any beading parties.
