Designing earrings can be difficult, since when you see beads laying in their boxes or on the table, they can look totally different once they're put on a wire. It depends on their size, where their holes are located for the wire and how they balance.
Here is an example:
Below are a few different beads I have. Sometimes just looking at them and combining them in different patterns is a great source of inspiration.
At other times, I need some inspiration from the natural beauty around me.
Appreciating the beauty around you helps when you're trying to be creative and design something beautiful yourself. ^__^
Here is an example:

| Loose beads on the table |

| Once they're stacked on a headpin, they look a bit different! |

| And the finished product: Waikiki Bungalows, available on my Etsy page |
 |
| Shells and assorted wooden beads |
 | |
| Freshwater pearls |
At other times, I need some inspiration from the natural beauty around me.
