Dolce & Gabbana Pasta Earrings

Dolce & Gabbana’s Spring 2012 Collection was a tribute to good Italian food, particularly the pasta accessories looked "delicious." Found on Honestly...WTF, a fantastic spot for DIY enthusiasts, was a great way to replicate the most striking earring design from the collection. All the materials can be purchased at a craft and bead store, though the process of careful assembly is a little daunting- it’s so worth it. To own such a kitschy pair of earrings, full of whimsical charm, straight from the runway is every Fashionista’s dream.

Hoop Earrings

Working with wire and beads is fun, and this tutorial shows a new way to create amazing earrings from pretty sea-coloured baubles. The title is called "Ocean filled with pearls," and it is apt for the homemade earrings which invoke such imagery. You can select any other colour of baubles you want that glitters playfully to be manipulated into a pair of earrings. Unlike other earring tutorials using beads, an artist’s eye is required to arrange the beads into an interesting pattern.

Chandelier Earrings


It is fascinating how the small pieces are structured into an elaborate pair of earrings. According to the tutorial you can choose any mix of beads from white/blue to green/yellow to craft exquisite earrings in the chandelier style. It does seem a little intimidating given the difficulty in connecting the small pieces together, especially if you’re not used to it. I advise you to stick with it as the earrings are very stylish and can spruce up any outfit.

Dream Catcher Earrings

The earrings have all the trimmings to radiate true bohemian chic, and any number of the multitude of colours, beads, thread and feathers can be assembled into trendy pieces to complement any outfit. Your bohemian attire may include a maxi dress, a colourful skirt or even leather shorts, so you can create tasteful dream catcher earrings to go with any look. Also, if you like meaning and symbolism in your jewelry, the origin of the earrings’ design has a rich history.

Flower Earrings

A creative fashionista saw a funky pair of earrings in the popular site, Anthropologie. Rather than spending money, she decided to create her very own look for less with canvas fabric, small beads and a few tools. These earrings have a distinctly feminine charm, and will distinguish your style from the boring plastic flower earrings. My selection is pink canvas fabric and colourful diamantes, as these materials feel similar to my own vivacious personality.

Origami Lily Earrings


I think it’s better for a craft list to have one slightly difficult project in the mix. From my experience, origami is pretty tough, more so when you have to make a miniature version of the origami tulips. The rest is far easier, just put together some beads and wiring for the final product. These origami lily earrings are pretty and have a delicate radiance- they cuti-fy any outfit.
