Sale! Originally $72...now $65. Step right up for the Greatest Show on Earth! That was the famous line the Barnum and Bailey Circus coined. What child (or adult for that matter!) doesn't love a circus…the colorful costumes, clown antics, balancing acts and all the other attractions! While rummaging in my stash, I found a treasure trove of tiny ivory-colored elephants that I had purchased at a bead show years ago. I just knew that I had to create something circus-themed so I've made two pairs of earrings that I've titled “Big Top”. I'm offering this kit in two colourways...bright red/yellow/blue and a more subdued yet still vivid fuchsia/teal/purple. Delica beads are used in the dome and metallic bronze bugle beads comprise the fringe…all contribute to the feeling of a carousel! I've added several shrink plastic components upon which the elephants pose. Measuring 2.5″ long, the earrings are very lightweight and did you know that elephants with trunks that point upward are said to bring good luck?
Each Beading Kit Contains;
*11/0 Delica beads
*15/0 Toho seed beads
*11/0 Toho seed beads
*3mm Toho tube beads
*Six handmade (by me) shrink plastic components

*Clear and concise step-by-step instructions are accompanied by large, full color photos and color charts that show you everything you need to know to complete the project including how to work with shrink plastic.
*Please note that I do not include needles and thread with my kits as most beaders have personal preferences regarding these materials.
