Seashell Dangle Earrings!

Seashell Dangle Earrings!
Seashells are as well as thus much fun to collect--why non present them off?!!

Here's what you'll take away to brand 1 duet of earrings:
two spiral shells amongst the sides cutting off exposing the chambers
(you tin honour them already cutting at arts and crafts stores or role a dremel tool as well as cutting your own!)
two claw earrings
two jewelry pins (could fifty-fifty hold upward oculus pins...but these are what I had)
two claw embellishments (optional merely pretty)
Spray paint
Jump rings as well as jewelry pliers

I started past times taking the shells to the garage to spray pigment them.
I beloved the diversity of metallic element paints...had to create i laid gilt as well as i silver.

While they dried, I attached my earring hooks to the niggling embellishments I had.
I accept an entire bucket of jewelry parts...so this was no stretch.

Now, yous tin encounter I am losing daylight...
Take or as well as thus E6000 glue

as well as dunk the pivot within the tube...

Remove it amongst a generous amount of glue...

Insert it into the terminate of the seashell.

Press it correct upward against the trounce wall.
Let it dry out completely.

Nearly done.

Take the pliers as well as snip off virtually one-half the length of the pin...
as well as thus yous accept virtually one-half an inch remaining.
Then whorl that one-half inch into a circle as well as claw it through
the embellishment business office of the earring.
