"Jai Ho" Earrings - SOLD



I made this pair of earrings and named it "Jai Ho" after hearing the catchy theme song of the movie, "Slumdog Millionaire" on the airwaves recently. Although I have never seen the show before, the song just keeps ringing in my head.;p

I am fascinated with Indian jewellery as they are colourful, vibrant and intricately designed. They make bold fashion statements too!

This pair of silver plated crescent moon shaped chandelier earrings are accented with pink crystals in the middle and at the top. In addition, those crystals dangling are swarovski fushia and light rose pink crystals.

These are utterly gorgeous and sensual earrings and you will absolutely love them.

"Jai Ho" is a Hindi phrase that means "May victory be yours". It can also mean, "You are my destiny" - literally translating it to "take action and go for the girl/guy that turns you on. Basically, it just means go with your gut and pursue the person that touches your soul" (extracted from the Urban dictionary). Haa...

Dimensions and components: The length of earrings is about 4.5cm to 5cm long (including the silver hooks). Swarovski bicone crystals.

Peranakan earrings - SALE! Now $4! (Was SGD$8)



My first upload in my blogshop! A pretty pair of square-shaped floral bead earrings adorned with little Swarovski pink crytals and gold-plated wire ear hooks.

The beads were made from polymer clay (crafted by Adeline from "Art of Clay"). The floral design was inspired by the Peranakan culture, and the hype on the ""Little Nonya" TV programme last year. The earrings are handmade by me and I hope you'll like them!

Dimensions: Pink flower design on purple-blue based beads. Size of beads is measured about 1cm wide on each side. Earrings hang about about 2.5cm long. The hooks are gold-plated.
