Cost-efficient handmade jewelry with good DIY jewelry supplies

Since my last experience with the magical

shrinkable plastic, I had some leftovers. So I came

up with today’s project for a pair of cute handmade

jewelry earrings. It’s a kind of thin plastic that

shrinks up to 70% of its original size. You can create

a number of accessories using this kind of DIY

jewelry supplies. I’m sure you will be thrilled with

the results and possibilities!

Needed DIY jewelry supplies:

Shrinkable Plastic

Decorative Bead (pearl in this project)

Earring Hook

Jumpring

Eyepin

Fabric Scrap

Scissors

Round Nose Plier

Side Cutting Plier

Paper Punch

How to make this handmade jewelry:

Step 1: work with the shrinkable plastic

1. Take a piece of paper and draw out the shape you want. In this case I created a fun shell shape.

Cut the pattern out;

2. Cut out the same pattern in the plastic;

3. Punch a hole at the top and the bottom of your shape;

4. Heat the plastic in an oven at 130 to150 Celsius degrees. Make sure you place a piece of baking

paper under it;

5. After 3 minutes, take it out and wait for it to cool down. Paint the plastic with a dazzling nail

polish color and let it dry completely.

Learn how to make this pair of cute and lightweight handmade jewelry earrings. We have used versatile

shrinkable plastic and a piece of fabric scrap as the main DIY jewelry supplies. What a pair of super IN style

earrings.

Step 2: make the fabric part

1. Take the fabric and fold it several times. Sew the

corner together;

2. Shape the fabric to create a mini tassel.

After that, repeat the same steps to complete your pair!

Your handmade jewelry earrings have been produced!

Just one tip for you while working with the DIY jewelry

supplies, especially the magical shrinkable plastic: pay

attention to the shrinking proportion compared to its

original size. Hope you’ll love it.

Step 3: design a decorative beaded

part

Slide one pearl bead on the eyepin. Loop the

other side.

Step 4: group all the elements

Take the earring hook, beaded element,

plastic and fabric tassel. Connect the

elements using jumprings.
