DIY Paper Flower Jewelry.
If you remember my post from last week on our DIY paper flower statement necklaces, this is going to be the continuation today.
So of course we will need some dainty earrings and a fashion ring to match those pretty necklaces we made last week.
Supplies you will need:
Paper flowers or silk flowers (mini rosette svg templates here)
pearls
glue gun and sticks
ring base
earring posts and backs
If you don't have a cutting machine buy some small flower punches at your local craft store or online.
Fiskars Flower Lever Punch, Small
You can buy earring making kits at most craft stores.
Or you can re-purpose some old earrings laying around in your jewelry box like I did. Recycling earring backs makes this project even more frugal!
Roll your mini rosettes up and add a pearl or rhinestone if desired.
See how to roll the flowers in the original paper flower statement necklace post.
Hot melt glue your backs onto the flowers.
All set! How easy is that?!
Now for the fashion ring.
I used my ruby style template and shrunk it down to 1 inch cuts.
You can find the template here and shrink it on your cutting machine software.
Again if you don't have a machine just buy a few different pretty punches to make your ring.
Just add some glue between the flower and the ring and your all done!
Mine actually turned out even larger then I expected so you might want to shrink the template to 3/4 of an inch to make it less than giant on your finger. :-)
Sorry for the left over chipped manicure. I'm so busy these days, blogging, chasing toddlers and running my shop! That was actually the first manicure I'd had in 9 months!
