Day 32 of Challenge 2012 - 365 days of earrings!!

Well, today was the celebration for my mom and it went really well.  The house looked great, the food was excellent and the guests were convivial and knew each other from previous get-togethers and it just flowed.  Sigh.  Tomorrow we leave this house that has been home for the past 50 years and head south towards TEJAS!!  Yeehaw!!

Tonight's earrings are the ones inspired by my mom's penchant for organizing.  Remeber those two brass bells?  Small things in small containers?  I kinda saved these for a night that i needed a quick project and tonight is that night.

Supplies are easy breezy:
(2) small brass bells
(2) 6mm jump rings
old chain cut into two more or less equal lengths (ha ha!)

Open jump ring and attach a bell and a length of chain
Repeat.
Done!  And, honestly, nobody will notice that one chain is a tiny link or two longer than the other.  If they do notice, they are probably too close, eh?

Jingle bells, jingle bells!  Yes it will be Christmas before i'm done with the remaining 333 pairs of earrings.....
