  1. Make the hole at the top of the feather, but not too close to the top edge (otherwise it will risk tearing).
  2. Use pliers for this part:if you have two pairs, you can use one pair to hold the ring in place and the other to open it.
  3. Use two loops for each feather, so that there is space between the hook and the feather.
  4. You should now have two feathers ready to attach to the earwires.
  5. Slide it inside each ring and close with pliers.The feathers should now hang from the hook.
  6. And there you have it!

  1. If the clip is particularly small and the feather is quite large, cut a small piece of cardstock into a circle shape and glue it to the clip first.It will provide a larger and safer surface to attach the feather to.Let dry and apply additional glue before proceeding to the next step.
  2. It can be a great way to hide the end of the feather.
  3. Check that they are comfortable to wear and you're done.

Advice

  • Make sure the metal parts are all the same metal:If the rings are silver, don't buy gold nuns!
  • You can make circles of beads or sequins around the gemstone, or you can include beads in your drop earring arrangement.
  • The second method can also be used for shoe clips.Create a pair of earrings and a pair of matching shoe clips to have a complete set of fashion accessories.
  • Once you've made them, you can mix and match your feather earrings.
