Create colorfulsummer earrings in just a few minutes. Choose your colors of resin cabochons and trapezoid pendants, assemble your pendants to the ear studs, glue your cabochons and voilà! It's creative, quick and easy. Have fun mixing colors and matching them to your outfits. In this tutorial, we suggest you use cabochon ear studs compatible with 14 mm cabochons. They must be connected to the pendants with a ring. These studs are available in gold-plated brass or gold-plated stainless steel, as well as in silver-plated brass and silver-plated stainless steel. You'll find the other possibilities in the variation section of the hardware list.
Of course, you can also use other types of earrings with these trapeze pendants. For example, if you prefer to use stainless steel earrings, you can just as easily slip the trapeze pendants into gold-plated stainless steel hoop earrings. Resin trapeze pendants are available in both bright and pastel colors. Whether you opt for a bold, vintage look with bright hues or something softer with pastel tones, you'll always have earrings perfectly suited to the occasion. They're also perfect as last-minute personalized gifts, offering a touch of retro charm.
Creating these retro earrings requires no special jewelry-making skills, making it accessible to everyone, even beginners. All you'll need is glue and a pair of jewelry pliers to open and close the rings. This jewelry-making workshop will only take a few minutes of your time, offering you a creative break from your daily routine. Feel free to show us your versions of these earrings.
These earrings will cost you less than 10 euros per pair, excluding tools. If you'd like to optimize the price, we offer sliding-scale prices according to the quantity purchased. So if you buy gold-plated stud earrings in packs of 5, they'll cost you less. We also sell them in 10-pair sets for an even more attractive price. The same goes for our other products: when you buy 5 or 6 identical products, the sliding-scale price applies. It's a great opportunity to set up a workshop with friends and share the cost!
To make these earrings, the only technique you need to master is to know how to open and close the hoop earrings without distorting them and without leaving a gap between the two ends of the hoop. Take a pair of flat-tipped pliers and a pair of round-tipped pliers. Close the pliers on either side of the ring slot. Then rotate the ring opening. Do not pull the ring apart, as this will deform it.
Slide the pendant and stud hole into the ring. Then close the ring by rotating the two ends again. At the end, turn back and forth so that the two ends of the ring touch.
Put a small amount of glue in the center of the stud tray and place the cabochon on top. Move the cabochon slightly to distribute the glue. Leave to dry for 24 hours before wearing the earrings.
