I really enjoy creating glass combinations and seeing what shape the inclusions take during the fusing process. The pendant looks like there is a branch with some tree buds, hence the name. The earrings match in terms of color, although they don't have any 'buds'. I experimented some with the wire wrap on the earrings and I like the way the glass centers are framed. I also added some spirals to this, and that was before my friend Sandy of SCJ Jewelry Design explained the Beauty of Spirals in her blog! Thanks to Sandy I have some insight as to why we find spirals so attractive.

Very beautiful earrings and wire wrapping! Love the spirals, of course! Thanks for the blog and etsy shop mention. You're a dear.
Oh yes, I love the little spirals at the bottom, that's a great addition.
Kristin :)
Hi Sandy!
Thanks. Yes I thought you would enjoy the spirals. :)
Hi Kristin,
Thank you. Glad you like the spiral addition...I plan on trying more variations like that.
Yes the spirals add even something extra...I look forward to the variations. I could see them getting long...spirals then glass then spirals, etc.
Thanks Karen! I like the imagery you've created for me with your comment. Hmmmm something to work on! Yay! :)
