Sequins

Creating earrings with sequins is one of the quickest and most accessible DIY projects around. Here's how to do it:

• Choose your sequin according to the desired shape and size (petal, heart, round...).
• Connect it to an ear hook using a small open joining ring, which you close with two flat clips.
• Personalize by adding a small pearl, charm or second sequin for added volume.
• Repeat for the second loop and you're done!

In less than 10 minutes, you'll have a pair of light, original and fully personalized earrings.

The major 2026 trends in synthetic sequins for DIY jewelry revolve around several universes:

• Marbled and speckled: organic, stone-like effects, highly prized for their natural, sophisticated look.
• Oversized florals: large, curved or domed flower petals dominate spring and summer creations.
• Printed motifs: liberty, wax, polka dots, gingham... for jewelry with a strong graphic character.
• The marine theme: seashells and nautical shapes return to form for the summer months, perfect for vacation and seaside jewelry.

Acrylic sequins are extremely durable for everyday costume jewelry use. They don't warp at room temperature, don't oxidize and generally retain their color well over time.
