Earrings Everyday Firefly Inspired June Theme! How could I resist!?
Growing up in the mid-west, fireflies or lightening bugs, have been apart of every summer in my life. I can't think of a more beloved memory.
I first saw these amazing hand painted firefly tube beads by Summer Wind Art and knew I had to have them. I played around with a few ideas but unexpectedly a tribal feel came out. I had purchased some Lillypilly bone donuts in a destash but they needed some glow, so I used a gold leafing pen to jazz them up! The pattern of swirls remind me of the dance they do in the air!
Thank you for stopping by!
