These beautiful and realistic cardinal earrings show that shrink plastic is not just for kids! I use it to make unique pieces for jewelry, The cardinals are a piece of my original art work, transfered to the plastic and hand colored using colored pencils. Once the plastic shrinks, it produces the deep rich colors that you see here. These earrings are of male cardinals. The females are a more subdued color, so that they can remain invisible to predators while on the nest. But the males exhibit these bright vibrant colors. Both visit my bird feeder during the winter and it is always a joy to see the bright red feathers against the drab winter landscape. These cardinal earrings are 2 inches long, including the silver plated ear wires. The cardinal's legs are Toho Treasure Beads in a cubed shape.
