This image most likely came from a vintage Christmas card or postcard. It shows a young girl in her best winter coat. The words in the background say "Merrie Christmas and Glad New Year". Trimmed in silver paint with sterling silver ear wires.

 

These unique earrings are made with standard scrabble tile game pieces. The images are are altered digitally and printed on high quality paper. The image is then attached to the smooth side of a scrabble tile. The image is then sprayed with a protective coating, and then a thick protective glaze is applied.

 

The sides of the tile are hand painted to give it a 'framed' look.

 

The bail on this pair is screwed into the top of the tile and glued to reinforce.

 

The back of the earrings are random scrabble tile letters, and are not altered.  

 

Each pair is hand-made by Owner/Designer Carla Ekman
