  • @AppelmoesArtandPhotography

    Nice! I have some real and faux leather pieces and I’m gonna try this. One suggestion, if you don’t use a hole punch, you can put a piece of cork under the earrings, that way you don’t stab yourself or the table when punching with the sharp needle.

    • @letsmakeit_diy
      @letsmakeit_diy  Před 4 lety

      Yes! I have a piece of wood that I typically use and it works out great for that! Have fun and thanks for watching!

  • @feathermoon6970
    @feathermoon6970 Před 2 lety

    I don’t get how your able to wrap the wire around the tassel and make it tight. I can’t get the wire to stay and it won’t bend enough to keep the leather in place. Thoughts?

    What size is the tear drop shape? Lovely earrings!

    • @letsmakeit_diy
      @letsmakeit_diy  Před 6 lety

      It' about 2 inches, but I would recommend drawing a little template and holding it up to your hear like an earring to see if you like the size, etc. That's what I did!

  • @mult1coloured

    I have some leather scraps but they seem to be thinner and more floppy than what you're using, anyone got advice on how to harden/stiffen that leather ?

    • @letsmakeit_diy
      @letsmakeit_diy  Před 6 lety

      +SouthernBelle Sass Hi there! On the tassel earrings, I actually used a pin that came in my findings kit and made a jump ring to fit what I needed. The other earrings were pretty small ones that came in the kit. Sorry- I don’t have that packaging left anymore to look! Have a great day and thanks for stopping by! ❤️

  • @sarahlibertybooker8116

    What thickness leather do you think I should look for

    • @letsmakeit_diy
      @letsmakeit_diy  Před 6 lety

      I would say 1-2mm. The fringe ones are thinner to allow movement and the teardrop/pendant ones are sticker to hold their shape.

  • @sanskritishrestha999
    @sanskritishrestha999 Před 6 lety +1

    It's great! But there'd be a more finished look if you used pliers to work with jump rings and ear hooks

      @letsmakeit_diy  Před 6 lety

      Hi, Melissa! I found some scrap leather at Hobby Lobby. They packaged it in a bag and it was under $10 (use a coupon a get it even cheaper!). Michael's or other craft stores might have the same! For small projects like this, scraps work great!

  • @darcijones6314
    @darcijones6314 Před 4 lety

    What is that yellow stuff you are using ? What is it for?

    • @letsmakeit_diy
      @letsmakeit_diy  Před 4 lety

      Olive oil! It will naturally darken the leather just a little bit like a natural dye.

    • @letsmakeit_diy
      @letsmakeit_diy  Před 4 lety

      You can find scraps on Amazon, at leather stores, and hobby stores sometimes! There's a lot of different type of leather and thicknesses, so depends on how flexible you need your leather for the earring you are trying to make.

    • @letsmakeit_diy
      @letsmakeit_diy  Před 4 lety

      I don't, but I would reccomend drawing out whatever shape you want, cut it out and dangle it from your ear to make sure it's a length/width you like. I have a long face, so I like something a little bit longer to balance out all that...space. :-)

  • @karabethbagley3827
    @karabethbagley3827 Před 4 lety

    For genuine leather, how do you get rid of the fuzzy edges?? Mine all get a fuzzy look to the edges and I have no clue how to get rid of them.

    • @letsmakeit_diy
      @letsmakeit_diy  Před 4 lety +1

      My husband does leather working and he uses a smooth wooden tool to burnish the edges. Fine grit sandpaper might also work? I burnish it with the smoothest wood I can find and then kind of trim any fibers that might be left.
