There isn't much mystery about these puzzle earrings. They are upcycled from used jigsaw puzzle pieces that are small. The pieces are painted with metallic copper paint and they hang from 2 antiqued brass chains that are long. And the earrings are lightweight. They seem simple enough, although it took quite a bit of time to make them, now that my eyes are 58 years old and my fingers seem to be a bit more clumsy. But they are whimsical and when they twist and turn, provide a bit of shimmer, and who couldn't use a little extra shimmer? They remind us to stay curious, to live the questions, and well, that it's really. Life's a mystery. And who doesn't love a good mystery? Handmade, One of a kind, and utterly ridiculous. Shine on.

Styling ideas:
You can wear these wearable art earrings with just about everything, and of course, nothing at all. Still, they'd accessorize one of my pirate wench festival skirts beautifully. Then maybe top the outfit off with one of my upcycled hats, a fedora I should think, because they are the style of detectives and sleuths, characters who puzzle out mysteries...
