I did it Upside Down

Don't get any naughty ideas :)
I am referring to the Coiled Filigree Earrings by Emily.
Tried out the project yesterday.

Well, I didn't follow through the tutorial.
Reason being I got flooded with other ideas halfway through the project.

First, while making the hoop, I decided to change it from dangle to hoop earrings.
The size of the hoops are maintained at 2.5cm in diameter.

Then, when the coils were completed, and I was getting ready to attach it to the bottom of the hoop, another idea came to mind.
Ermmmm....how would it look like if attach to the inside of the hoop instead?

That is how I ended up with an upside down version of Emily's Filigree earrings. Instead of this

The beads, coral and pearl were wire wrapped to the bottom.
