Día de los Muertos is a day of celebration and remembering those that have died. It is a public holiday in Mexico and is a 2 ay long festival.
Altars are built for the passed and offerings are made of Sugar skulls, marigolds, toys for little children and their favourite foods.
This holiday/festival is observed in countries all over the world.
To celebrate Día de los Muertos I have made sugar skull earrings.
I have been busy making new earrings to list on Madeit.
These earrings are made using a process called Sublimation Printing. I really enjoy this process as it allows to me to use graphics, images or photographs and turn them into jewellery that is Big, bold and bright!
The earrings are a smaller version of what I have already listed in my shop measuring at 25mm round. Still large enough to see the graphics, but not to big to get in the way. The discs hang on handmade sterling silver earhooks.
