Cherry Earrings

Who hasn't hung cherries from their ears as a child (or even as an adult)? It's always been a ritual of mine with the first cherries of the season, so I thought I would make some cherry earrings I could wear whenever I wanted.

These are life-size, and I've been asked more than once if they're real!

Materials: aluminium foil, wire, polymer clay (Sculpey III), acrylics to give it a bit of "real" color, glossy glaze for the cherries and mate glaze for the stems.
