DIY Super Sparkly Earrings

What do you get when you mix polymer clay with sparkly nail polish?

 

Super sparkly jewels for your ears, that’s what.  Boom.

Materials:

Small amount of polymer clay – I used white clay

Sparkly Nail Polish

Sharpie Paint Pen in Gold (or silver, your choice!) (optional)

Earring posts and backs

Gorilla Glue or other super sticky glue

Step 1:  Mold your polymer clay into the size and shape you would like for your earrings and bake them as directed on the polymer clay packaging.

Step 2:  Paint your earrings with the sparkly nail polish.  Allow to dry overnight.  My coat of nail polish was a little thick, so I gave it all night to dry.

Step 3:  Attach the earring post with the Gorilla Glue and allow to dry

Step 4:  Holding the earring post, paint the edges of the earrings with your Sharpie paint pen.  If you want.  These look very cute with just the nail polish.

Step 5:  Allow to dry.  I held the earrings by the post for a little bit until the paint dried a bit and then left them on a plate to dry

Step 6:  Wait overnight before you wear them so that the glue and paint have completed dried!
