Hi guys! So, today I'm going to be showing you how to make these super cute
Anthropologie- inspired statement earrings, and yeah, let's get into it. So, the first thing
that you want to do is: on a sheet of paper you want to draw a square that
measures three eighths by three eighths. Then, after that, you want to draw a triangular
shape along the left side, and along the right side of the square. Then, after that,
you want to erase the two lines that were once the edge of the square. There
you have the top part of your earring, and we'll call this Part A. After that,
you want to trace a circle onto your paper. Then, after that you want to draw a
horizontal line straight through the middle of the circle. So, starting from
one end where the circle and the middle horizontal line intersect you want to
draw a diagonal line that extends about seven eighth inches and about 45 degrees
outwards. After that, you want to draw a curve to connect the bottom of the two
diagonal lines and we'll call this Pattern B. After that, you want to
trace a circle onto a sheet of paper and we'll call this, Pattern C. Then, after
that you want to cut out the pattern. So cut out your Pattern A, your Pattern B,
and your Pattern C, and you want to trace it onto your foam sheet. And then, when
you're done you're going to cut out your shapes. And, once you cut out your shapes
here's where you can decide what colors you want to use. So, for example, for my
Pattern A I'm going to use black, and for my Pattern B I'm going to use pink,
and then for my Pattern C I'm going to try to do a nice little pattern with
like brown and white. Then once you've done
that you want to poke a hole through the bottom of Pattern A, and then you want to
poke a hole through the top of Pattern B, and then you want to poke a hole through
the top of Pattern C, and through the bottom of Pattern C as well.
Once you have poked all of your holes, you're going to take your jump rings and
you're just going to connect Pattern A to Pattern B, and then Pattern B
to Pattern C, and then you're going to repeat these steps again with the other set.
And then, after that you are going to flip it over and you're going to put a
little bit of glue on your earring post, and then you're going to attach your
earring post to the top of Part A of each earring, and you are all done
Finito! Yay! So, leave me a comment please and let me know how you are going to get
creative with your earrings, how you're going to stylize them, what colors are
you going to use? Are you going to use fabric with it? Let me know, I want to know. So,
thank you guys so much and as always be sure to like, leave a comment, and share
this video with anybody that you think would love it. Ciao!
