Jewelry Designer Stephanie Wells from Double Happiness Jewelry has a new book out called The Earring Style Book. Can I just say this book had me at hello? The cover image of these Rio earrings just captured me. Aren’t they gorge? Inspired by shattered glass, the beads are stacked straight. This is just one of the interesting techniques in the book which you can vary and create some amazing looks. Wells’ designs are favorites among top celebrites and fashion stylists and you can tell why just by browsing through the book. She starts of with jewelry basics from wrapping wire into her standard forms to detailed descriptions of various beads. You can make a simple pair of earrings in just a twenty minutes or in about an hour and a half, make the Rio earrings shown above. Throughout each section, Wells’ sparks your creativity with her mood board pages that are peppered with fashion photos, fabric swatches, beads, vintage letters and more. Pick up this book if you are looking for ways to stylishly up the ante in your jewelry crafting. As for me, I’m off to the bead store now.
