Handmade wooden earrings
Use a nail file to smooth the sides and the surface.
With a pencil mark the point where you want to attach the earring hooks. Use a thin screwdriver to make the hole. Place the hole close to the edge to allow the jump ring to enter, but not too close to avoid breaking the wood. While making the hole avoid pressing too hard.
With the ruler and the cutter "draw" some geometrical forms. I've used again the nail file to make this line smoother.
Mix watercolor with a bit of gouache and paint the earrings.
Use the round nose pliers to attach the jump rings and the earring hook.
Enjoy!
Last but not least: with this project I'm participating in this week's The Makers link party. A couple of weeks ago, Alexis, one of the hosts, stopped by and commented on my flower pot project, letting me know about the link party she's hosting. I promised I would join soon and I finally decided to do so. Don't miss it!
