These long torquoise macramé earrings are particularly dear to me as it's made from a piece of my mum's wedding dress.
My mum kindly gave me her wedding dress to make my jewelry, so this hook earrings are part of my history.
I can't tell you how proud I am about this collection, and most important of all, my mum loves how I upcycled her dress!
The dress is from 1966 so it's a genuine Vintage piece. You can see my parents on their wedding day in the last picture (by the way, they're still happily married!).
I cut the macramé design, hand dyed it, and then I hardened it with non toxic material.
I enriched the earrings with white glass beads.
