My wing earrings are super light weight! These feature actual dragonfly wings from my “found bug” collection. I have ever-so lightly sealed these to preserve their delicate nature.
These wings are from a larger dragonfly and have a very pale amber tint with sepia veining. They are embellished with a Nile green, glass, sword shaped dangle bead at top, a faceted, clear, heart shaped, palest blue glass bead at tips, which measure approx. 1/4” in diameter. These flitter beautifully and reflect light like crazy. I have cut + shaped the hooks (image 3), which measure approx. 1” L, from antique copper colored craft wire. Earrings measure approx. 2+7/8” long from top of hook to bottom dangle. And are approx. 11/16”W. Buy my wearable nature art and rock the world!
NOTE: I find all cicada and dragonfly wings after each insect’s natural life span, on the ground, while gardening, or while out in nature. CARDBOARD MODELS ARE LIFE SIZED.
