One of the areas where I often get brain freeze is when naming my jewelry creations. I try to be as creative as possible, but it's not always easy. However, I think it is important to give names to the pieces I create because each is so unique and full of character. Sometimes a particular piece just screams out the name, and others leave me blank. Case in point: The colorful copper and crystal earrings you see pictured at left. I made them weeks ago but I am having trouble thinking up something really original to call them. So, I am asking for your help :)

My entry is, "PALOMA" in honor of Paloma Picasso. They look very exotic, sophisticated and whimsical all at the same time. Beautiful work!
The painter in me names them "Green Squared". Why green, you ask? I notice that they have both yellow and blue crystals. What do you do when you combine yellow and blue? Green!
Although the blue crystals are so beautiful I find the rectangular copper pieces so interesting. "Chocolate Bar" immediately came to mind because that's what they remind me of!

Blue guepard!!! The copper piece looks like guepard skin and blue is obvious!!! The crystal bead is so pretty!!! I thought first about Blue eyes guepard, but I found it a little long...
Thanks!

You could always name them Jolie!
to me, the copper reminds me of a vintage razor blade, so I would name it "Razor's Edge"

"Windsong"...
is my name suggestion, because the wind could go right through the earrings and you might hear a song as they dangle with the pretty crystals...only the wearer, and angels, might hear the whisper of the wind!
