Aleene's EcoCool Glittered Purse Earrings

If you're looking for ideas for homemade earrings, think outside the box and create a project that really sticks out. Aleene's EcoCool Glittered Purse Earrings from Heidi Borchers are loud, fun and super sparkly. Get ready to turn heads with this creative craft project.

Be sure to save cardboard and plastic for your design - you'll save money and help the Earth at the same time. Once you've created the shape of the purse, punch a hole in the center of the handle. Brush glue on to the different parts of the purse and sprinkle desired glitter colors. Be sure to save the leftover glitter for another project. Add glue to the back of each rhinestone and place them on your earrings. Add jump rings and fishhooks to complete the look.
