Since I’ve been attempting to write the tutorial for my Men’s Shirt to Romper project for the last 2 hours and I’m now going cross-eyed with no end in sight, I think I’ll instead share yet another project I submitted for Style Sample Magazine and New York Design Shop’s Create Couture Challenge.
Materials:
*White Rose Pin (leaves only)
*Cream Rose Pin (leaves only)
Additional Tools/Materials:

*chain earrings (basically just some french hooks and some lightweight chain)
*pliers
*2 jump rings
*scissors
*awl
How to:
1. Remove leaf sections from undersides of both rose pins.

Separate leaves and trim tops.
2. Stack 4 leaves atop one another and poke a hole in their tops using the awl. (You can also use small sharp scissors or a pin.)

3. Thread the bundle of leaves onto a jump ring.

4. Add jump ring to earring. Repeat Steps 2-4 for the remaining leaves and other earring.

Pretty easy, huh?
Fun, dangly, and lightweight – these are perfect for summer!
