Salt and Pepper quilling earrings




               
                      Hello friends, are you interested in making some simple and beautiful earrings using easy quilling techniques ? Then you have come to the right place. In this article I am showing you how to  make a simple hanging and a stud earrings. As you all know the all season favorite colors black and white suits with almost all your outfits. That is why I am making something unique using these two colors.

Pepper earrings :



For this you need 3 mm black color quilling strip.
The detailed procedure is shown below:
  • Attach two quilling strips and make a tight coil as shown in Step 1 and Step 2.
  • Cut a single quilling strip into two parts as shown in Step 3.
  • Make tight coils in each of the part as shown in Step 4.
  • Make 10 such tight coils (they will look like peppers)  .
  • Attach the small coils to the big coil using fevicol as shown in Step 5 and Step 6.
  • Take some kundans of your choice and stick them on the flower shape. Please refer to Step 7.
  • Attach the jump rings and hooks to complete the earrings.


And please don't forget to apply a coat of transparent (clear ) nail polish to give it a shiny look. This will also make your earrings water proof.


Salt studs :



I simply love to call this salt studs purely because of it's all pure white in color (maybe I should have mentioned kitchen salt, as rock salts do have binge color :-) ),This stud is very simple. I have used 3 mm white color quilling strip.
  • Cut a single quilling strip into two parts . 
  • Make a petal shape in each of the parts.
  • Arrange in a flower pattern.
  • You can also stick a flat pearl in the middle to give it a beautiful look.
  • Finally attach the stud available outside as ready made.
