These festive earrings are a must have for Christmas, you can easily make them with just a few materials.
How nice is it to wear your own earrings at Christmas? Besides wearing these earrings yourself, they are also very nice to give to someone! In this DIY you can read how to make nice earrings in a few simple steps.
My name is Petra Laan. I like to be creative and my head is always full of new ideas! You can see what I already make on my own website DoorPetra , Facebook and Instagram. We are going to make these earrings with epoxy resin and pigments (colors). You pour the epoxy resin into a mold and it hardens within a few hours. The result: your own made earrings!
This time I used the Epoxy resin UV - (UltraEpoxy Premium) to make the earrings. You can also choose another epoxy resin or the ready-made epoxy resin . But just what you prefer. I use the Silicone Mold Christmas earrings. This contains approximately 32 grams of epoxy. You have to mix the UltraEpoxy 100:60 and it will then harden perfectly within 48 hours. I weigh 20 grams of A and 12 grams of B (this makes a total of 32 grams). Stir this thoroughly for 3 minutes, also scraping the edges and bottom well.
I divide the epoxy over 4 mixing cups. With a stirring spatula I add some pigment to the mixing cup and stir it well into the epoxy.
Step 3: Pouring the Epoxy
Then carefully pour the epoxy into the mold. I chose to make the two reindeer brown (Brown), the Christmas tree is green (Jade Green), Santa Claus is red (Ruby Red) and the snowman and snow crystal are white (Sparkling White). After pouring, wait 24-48 hours for it to harden before continuing to work with it.
Step 4: Making the earrings
After waiting, it's time to assemble the earrings! Open the ring with pliers and put the French ear hooks through it. You then close the ring again and taada... your homemade earring is ready! You repeat this for the other earrings and you have a very nice collection of earrings, whether during Christmas or of course nice gifts.
