Reader’s Gallery – The End of an Earring

Dry your eyes and put the tissues away. It’s time to celebrate the Queen of earrings!

On New Year’s Day, Pam St Clement donned her oversized props for one last time as Pat Butcher bowed out of Eastenders. We asked you to show us your take on earrings in the ‘Pat style’. We were overwhelmed by the amount of dangly tributes that came flooding in but we’ve managed to narrow it down to these few.

Congratulations

This month, congratulations go to Jane Marley. We thought her hot looking chilli earrings had just the right mix of fun and sparkle to tickle Pat’s fancy. We’ll be sending Jane a £10 voucher to spend on Beads Unlimited goodies.

Get yourself showcased

Thanks for all your great entries and sorry if you didn’t make it into the gallery this time. The current theme running is ‘Valentines‘. For a chance to be featured, please email creative@beadsunlimited.co.uk or post up your photos on our facebook wall by midnight, Sunday 19th February 2012.
If you have your own website or blog that you would like linked to if you are showcased, please let us know with your entry. All we ask is a mention with a link to Beads Unlimited on your page (with the link on the word ‘Beads’).
