December Archer Earrings Tutorial
Created by: Summer Melaas
Here's an easy DIY custom gift! This free jewelry design project uses December's birthstone and a Zodiac charm for Sagittarius. It can easily be customized for any other birth date by switching out the colors and signs.
Designer Tips
Clean link with alcohol for best adhesion.
Mix a small amount of epoxy according to instructions, and adhere crystal to the link. Allow to dry thoroughly.
Assemble earrings, attaching each link directly to the earwire, and using jump ring to attach charm to the link.
The charms are two-sided, so I chose to hang with a different side showing on each earring.
