We took a last-minute trip away to the Bahamas for Spring Break :) Definitely needed to see the sun, it has been a very long depressing Winter!
While on our trip we collected some seashells on the beach. My son wanted a pendant made with one of the shells and my daughter some earrings. So I thought why not make all her little friends a pair as well! A super easy and quick craft to make... a real authentic souvenir, unlike the fridge magnets I brought back that say the Bahamas but were made in China!
Aren't they SO cute! I even made a pair for myself, hehe ;)
To make this you will need:
Seashells (the smallest you can find)
Earring Posts and Backs
Hot Glue and Gun
Instructions:
- Wash and dry the seashells.
- Select shells similar in shape and size for each pair of earrings you create.
- Turn on a hot glue gun.
- Add a drop of glue to the back of the seashell.
- Attach the post to the center of the shell.
- Repeat for all other earings.
- Add them to an Earing Card.
- Give away your authentic super cool DIY Seashell Earrings!
Using the Silhouette DSE, I created this cute Earing Card to attach my seashell earrings to. The wording was also done using the Print n Cut feature on the Silhouette Cameo!
For all those of you that would like this Earing Card I'm giving it away for FREE!!!
