Woodland Acorn Earrings
I was so excited when our new Vintage items arrived that I just had to make an idea with them. Our new Vintage Acorn Bead Caps are perfect for this lovely fall time of the year. I combined our 12mm Red Jasper Gemstone Rounds along with our new Acorn Bead Caps and, to add a little sparkle I used our 4mm Crystal Copper Swarovski Bicones. The finished length measures approximately 1.5 inches, including the ear wire. -Allie, Customer Service
