✿ Credit: Artists spend countless hours on their designs from concept to completion. I have the utmost respect for other artists, and the time/energy behind their original designs. I will always make a point to give credit where credit is due because I expect the same in return. Of course, in some rare circumstances, artists' beading designs may overlap in certain ways; after all, there are only so many combinations in which beads may be put together. It's possible for artists to simply “be on the same wavelength.” "Great minds think alike," and all that. :)

However, there's so much more work that goes unseen. I state this to let you know (1) how passionate I am about what I do, and (2) as a fellow human, I make mistakes, and do the best I can while also trying to maintain a work-life balance. I always strive to thoroughly research topics, educate myself, and present you with the most accurate content, to the very best of my ability. Thanks for joining me on this creative journey!

Hi Gina! The earrings are beautiful!! Great earring design!! I love that you used the Rivoli setting and did not cover the stone with a lot of seed beads. Im going to try making these design looks like it is “non-bead weaver person” friendly!! (Like me). Lol.
Thanks for sharing your beautiful design!!
❤️❤️📿

I love the simple elegant design of these. Also love the use of the hot pink 6-0 which is sometimes hard to incorporate in bead work

[crystalr]

For some reason, that color combination reminds me of cotton candy. Mmmmm! The 6/0s really bring out the pink within the rivoli. Eye catching, very pretty! Thanks!

[nildamarquez]

Very pretty. Looks like fast easy project . Thank you. Blessings 🙏👍👏👏👏❤️😘

[leannporter-parsley]

[maryzylema]

Do you use one of those punchers to set your rivolis or can you use you pliers?
