More Makin's Clay Flower Petal Earrings



 
I love working with these flower petals made from an extruded Makin’s Clay® cane.  These earrings are just another example of what can be made from the canes.
 
 
If you would like to make these earrings, just go to the Makin’s Clay® Blog  to the project called Flower Pendant - Caning with Makin’s Clay®.  The project explains how to make a cane which is used to make fun, funky flowers that can be turned into a pendant. 

  1. Follow the instructions on how to make the Makin’s Clay® cane
  2. Once the cane is dry, cut an odd amount of petals.  I used 19.  One to hang at the bottom of the chain and two for each link in the chain where petals will hang. 
  3. Cut a small length of chain for each earring.  I cut 20 links.
  4. I drilled the holes in the petal but a needle tool can be used to poke the holes.
  5. Add a jump ring to the petal and attach to a link in the chain.  I added one to each side of the link.
  6. Add an earring hooks and your beautiful earrings are done!
