Eye-Catching Paste Paper Jewelry
Paper Julep's hand-screened paper and paste paper earrings may have caught your eye when they were featured here a couple of months ago. Since then, artist Karen Krieger has been busy with craft shows around the country, but recently found time to add an assortment of colorful earrings to her Etsy shop where she also sells creative metalwork. [edit: Her Etsy shop is currently on a break.]
Paper Julep dimensional earrings are made with Japanese yuzen or chiyogami papers and Karen's hand-painted paste papers. Each pair features contrasting or complimentary colors.
The papers are laminated to archival museum board, laser cut, and sealed with acrylic lacquer. The earrings are very comfortable to wear and swing lightly as you move. Surgical steel ear wires and rubber nuts keep them safely in place.
Earrings will arrive packaged in a gift box/bag with care information and artist bio. What a nice present for yourself or someone on your list!
Now about the giveaway... two U.S. residents will each win a pair of
earrings of their choice from the shop.
The winners will be selected at random and announced on this post as soon as they have been contacted. Good luck!
Congratulations to the winners - tfanjoy and Diana Mieczan!
