Earrings are easy to make and whether you are a first-time crafter or love DIY these are both stunning and original designs by designer and educator Christine Smalley. Make two pairs of designer earrings and follow Christine in a pre-recorded step by step online tutorial.
With your craft box, you can make two pairs of earrings in your choice of colours:
  • 'Diamond' filigree chandeliers
  • 'Florentine' drop earrings
The 'Diamond' earrings are made from a delicately ornate brass element and fringed with Czech glass oval facetted beads. Exaggerated forms and gilded metallics make this vintage modern chandelier earring design an elegant statement. Plus, they are so lightweight and therefore incredibly comfortable to wear!
'Florentine' earrings are pretty and delicate but still pack an elegant statement. Aptly named after the ancient technique of metal engraving with a fringe of Czech glass crystal drops.
Both designs are sustainable with brass being the most eco of all metals as it has a small footprint. If you're looking for fun things to do at home, reach out for one of our jewellery making DIY kits which are just like making from scratch, only easier! Plus this earring kit comes with a step by step video tutorial.
