Hey there! So, today I'm going to be showing you how to make you super
duper cute statement earrings inspired by 2Bandits. I hope you guys enjoy it!
Let's get into it.
Be sure to check out the description for a list of materials that I used in order
to make these earrings. I am an affiliate with Amazon, so that would mean a lot to
me if you could support me. Draw a rectangle measuring 1.5 inches long, and
3/8 inches wide. We'll call this, Pattern A.
Draw a circle with the radius of one and 1/8 inches, we'll call this first circle CA.
Draw a second circle 1/4 inches in from the edge of CA, we'll call this
Circle CB. Draw a third circle a quarter inches in from the edge of CB,
we'll call this circle CC. Draw a fourth circle a quarter inches in from the edge
of CC, we'll call this Circle CD. Draw a fifth circle 1/8 inches in from the edge
of CD. We'll call this circle, CE. Draw the last circle 1/8 inches in from the edge
of CE. We'll call this Circle CF. So, if you want, you can glue gold paper onto your
foam sheet if you want your earrings to be metallic, but you can experiment with
different colors, different paint, fabric, beads, mini pom-poms, etc. Cut along all of
the circles, circles A through F. we'll call the first circle, circle 1. The
second circle, circle 2. The third circle, circle 3, the fourth circle, circle 4,
and the fifth circle, circle 5. We're only going to need circle 1, 3. and 5 for
our earrings. Trace circles one, three, and five and
pattern A onto your foam sheet, and then cut them out. Remember you'll need two
sets of these shapes. Place circles three and five inside of circle one so that
they are in order from the biggest circle outside and the smallest circle
in the center. Keep the circles in place by lightly laying something on top of
them, for example a tape dispenser. Place a light amount of glue on the center of
the top of each circle and let the glue get a little bit tacky. Then place
pattern A on top of the circles where you apply your glue. Be sure to leave
about a quarter of an inch of pattern A protruding from the top of circle one,
and this part we'll be using for our earring post. Then you want to glue your
earring post to the top of the back of each pattern A and finito! You are all
set, you have your SuperDuper cute earrings inspired by 2Bandits. Let me
know how you're going to stylize your earrings: are you going to use fabric,
are you going to use beads, what color you gonna use. Let me know.
