Settlers of Catan Earrings (photos only)

Settlers of Catan Earrings (photos only)
I've been creating small metal arts out of nickels, inspired by the work of mrballeng on Instructables.  This project was a pair of stud earrings based on the wood and brick resources from the boardgame Settlers of Catan.

The nickels were hammered flat, then filed into the correct outlines.  I then used paperclips to create the indented lines, and sanded/polished the pieces smooth.  A pair of old earrings was sacrificed for their posts, which were epoxied to the back of each piece.
