Crafty jewelry: Feather Earrings tutorial, jewelry making

I put together a tutorial for some lovely feather earrings.

They are very simple yet they make a beautiful statement. 

I love the look of the simple yet classic white on white look.

What you'll need:

• 6 Feathers


• Hot Glue Gun


• Craft Wire


• Jump Rings


• Needle Nose Pliers


• Wire Cutters


• Earrings Hooks

First take three of your feathers. Lay one feather right side down. Place a small dab of hot glue on that feather and then lay the next feather right side up on top. Repeat with the third feather. 

Clip the ends of the feathers.

Cut a 2" piece of wire. 

Bend about 2 cm of the wire down.

Place the end of the wire over the ends of the feather. 

Begin to wrap the wire around the top of the feather

Continue until you have reached the end of the wire.

Tuck in end of the wire in.

Open the jump ring and place though the wire on the feather. 

 Add the earring wire and close the loop. 

Repeat all the above steps to create a second earring.
