I am sharing yet another earrings
DIY and this time it’s Terracotta Orange Hoop Earrings. It is quite durable and
looks amazing. Let us start with the procedure:
For making these terracotta
earrings, you will need terracotta clay that you can find at any of the craft
shop near your home. Making earrings with this clay is same as we used to make
random things with colorful clay in our childhood. Firstly, take little amount
of clay and make a sphere out of it. Flatten the surface of the sphere using
your hand or any flat object. Using a thick needle, make a hole at the center
of the sphere.
Next take some eye pins that
again is easily available at any craft and jewelry shop. If you don’t get them
then you can simple crafting wire. Cut small pieces from the eye pins or wire. Insert
it into the sphere as shown in the image. Leave some gap in between two pins
and also cover the entire circumference of the sphere. Make small pearls of
terracotta clay and insert them into all the pins. Make sure that size of each
pearl should be same and uniform. Repeat the above procedure to form another
pair of sphere and it should exactly same as the first one. Let them dry for
12-15 hours.
After drying, color them with
your desired color and again let them dry. Take two Silver Hoops and insert the
spherical hole into each hoop.
Orange Hoop Earrings are ready
and will look good traditional as well western wear.
Note: Be quick while working with terracotta clay as it tends to become tight if kept in air for too long.
Happy DIY!!
