• i went up on the roof a couple days before this particular spree of earring-making & grabbed some steel wire
• i don’t know why it was up there, it’s not DOING anything, but hey, free jewelry materials
• the big brown beads came from a necklace my roommate gave me to take apart
• & the small green ones from a really WEIRD necklace i bought at a yard sale in Sandia park for, like, a buck
• i had to go buy earwires cos i can’t find the other ones • i gotta learn how to make my own
• they’re stainless steel, though, that’s kinda nice
