| Simple chainmail earrings with colored anodized aluminum rings and rainbow moonstone discs. |
I thought I'd try some easy projects at first. The first (and at the moment, only) project just with jump rings was, surprise, a pair of earrings. :) I opted for the colorful anodized rings instead of just aluminum, and decided to make some rainbow jewelry. The design is really really basic. Aluminum rings connected by two pairs of colored rings per row. The result was okay, but I thought something was missing, so I tried to add some gemstones to it. I chose rainbow moonstone discs and wired them into the aluminum rings so that they looked like they were floating.
The only problem with this design is ... the discs don't stay where they are supposed to be. Clearly, some adjustment has to be done. Sometime, when I'm in the mood, I'll get to it. But until then, I think I can enjoy them as they are. They are not perfect, but totally wearable, and somehow, I like them all the more for it. :D
