Anytime I find an owl bead, I have to buy it! I don’t know where the obsession came from, but I just love owls! They remind me of the 1970′s and my grandparents basement, that is, well, stuck in the 1970′s! They just have a very retro quality, especially when you find owl beads with big exaggerated eyes. I have made several pairs of owl earrings in my days, people either love them or hate them. Here is a pair I did with they lovely colorful enameled beads.

Enamel beads paired with swarovski briolettes and gold findings

And here is another page I did with brown czech glass owl beads that have a gold finish on them to emphasize the details of the beads.

Brown owl beads with gold embellishment and super sparkly faceted gold glass beads

You never know where you will find your next owls beads. I have found them at pawn shops, thrift stores and antique stores. (And well of course in the funky bead stores) Well, I hope you enjoy owls as much as I do!
