Easy DIY Gift Ideas
I love being able to make my own fashion. It's something that I've had a passion for as long as I can remember. But since I don't do it all the time, I sometimes find that I'm lacking confidence in making it happen.
This is why these earrings are the best. They aren't hard to make and got me over the hump and fear. They're so simple that even the kids joined in as well.
I loved that I could make these earrings in a ton of different colors and lengths to match my mood for the day or the colors of my outfits. These also make for really cute gift ideas as well that are great gifts for Mother's Day or a fun birthday idea also.
If you're looking for a fun and stylish craft that everyone can join in and make, these earrings should be at the top of your list. They're fast, simple, and really do frame the face and neck perfectly!

How to Make DIY Tassel Earrings
Measure out 25 strands of embroidery floss 7” long.
Place all the strands together and trim a ½” off each side to make sure all pieces are the same length. Cut the stands in half to make 2-3” bundles of strands.
Slide a jump ring onto the center of your strand bundles and fold the bundle in half.
Cut 2-9” strands of embroidery floss and tie the bundles together in a tight knot right under the ring.
Wrap the ends around a few times and tie the two ends into a tight double knot. Cut off any loose ends. Repeat step for second earing.
Use the pliers to open the bottom loop of the earring hook, slide the open hook onto the loop ring and close back up with pliers.
Use the pointy end of the thread ripper to comb out the embroidery floss into single threads.
Trim the tassels to even them out and they are ready to wear! Viola, you have a pair of tassel earrings!
If you are looking for more fan tassel earrings, you can iron the tassels down flat.
This is how you make tassel earrings!
Happy Earring Making!
