Today, it's all about jewelry! I love making my own jewelry using just about anything: handmade clay, beads and tassels, empty miniature bottles, and even paper bag handles.
I was really inspired by these earrings that are easy to replicate. Why buy when we can D.I.Y.?
I found some gold hoop earrings that are pretty to wear as is. But adding something simple as ribbon can change it's look entirely.
I choose a thin ribbon and cut a total of four strips, each one measuring 8 to 10 inches (this will depend on the diameter of your earrings).
Wrap one strip tightly on one side of the hoop, leaving a tail and knotting the end on to itself to keep the ribbon from unraveling.
Do the same on the other side of the hoop using a new strip of ribbon.
Make the tails meet at the center and knot them together.
Then, make a bow.
Repeat on the other hoop using the remaining two strips of ribbon.
Presenting a new look for these old hoops...TADA!
These would be perfect to make when you want a specific color of earring. Thanks for sharing!
