Quilled Ear Rings

This is a nice way to use leftover quilled pieces that are made from silver paper. I rolled out a small piece of metal clay and set the quilled pieces on that attaching them with paste and then cut around the shape. I inserted pure silver findings from Art Clay World between the roses and leaves. After firing I used a soft brass brush to burnish the pieces leaving the very centers with a little of the white firescale for contrast.You can also set fired pieces of quilling on sheet silver and attach them with oil paste.
