Wearable Artifact

From my fairy tale The Three Feathers, i derived these earrings as my wearable artifact. Other than trying to capture the general essence of the story i did my best to capture not out that but the entire story.

I chose to make earrings because they bow in the wind like the feathers from the story.
The earrings are triangles because they have 3 sides and 3 points, and 3 repeated a lot in my story. 
(3 brothers, 3 tasks, 3 feathers)
I chose to make them green to represent the envy and greed of the simple sons two older brothers.
The one hot pink ornament in the center represents the simple son.
And the golden wire running through the earrings and holding the pink ornament in the center represents the simple son's story of becoming king.
