Homemade earrings
I wanted beautiful earrings to go with the knitted dress, but not gold or silver, but something else, original. It was decided to create them with our own hands. I like to sculpt from polymer clay (plastic), so there were no problems with the selection of material for the earrings.
To begin, you need to bend two hooks from thin wire. You also need to pick up the chain and cut it in half. The number of links should be the same in each piece so that both earrings are the same length.
The dress is light green with yellow and white flowers. In order for everything to look harmonious, the color of the plastic must be selected carefully. I used white, yellow and green. To get light shades, I mixed rich yellow with white plastic, and we also get light green.
We roll a ball out of light yellow plastic and attach it to the hook - we get the base for the earring. You need to attach a chain to the bottom of the ball, placing it on a small piece of plastic. Then we start decorating the ball. We take a small piece of plastic, knead it into a plate and attach it to the ball base. To make it more interesting you need to alternate different colors.Both earrings need to be sculpted at the same time, otherwise they will turn out too different. Those. sculpt several petals on one earring, put it aside and sculpt the same ones on the other. It’s better to make a stand to hang the earrings instead of putting them on the table, so there’s less chance of ruining something. The stand can be made from toothpicks or pencils, the main condition is that it must be durable.
Under all the multi-colored petals, I made one monochromatic one, like the sepals of flowers. The chain hangs freely, reminiscent of a flower stem. But, if desired, you can mold a second base ball and decorate it as the top part of the earring.
After the modeling is finished, the earrings need to be baked. The oven should be preheated to 250 degrees. Bake for a few minutes, hanging on a rack. Then you need to wait until the earrings cool down and that’s it.
