Instruction
-
Start out by taking some embroidery thread and tying a knot around the end of one of your hoop earrings. I like to add a small dot of superglue around my knot to hold it in place.
-
Wrap your embroidery thread around your hoop earring until you reach the other side. Tie another knot on the other side and superglue to secure. The superglue does a great job of keeping your embroidery thread from slipping into your earring closures.
-
Next, it’s time to make some tassels! I created an easy little video on how to make your own tassels below. For today’s tutorial, I used 10 tassels in total but you can choose to make however many you like.
-
Now that your tassels are all ready to go, it’s time to attach them to your hoop earrings. Tie a small knot to hold them in place and once they are secure, trim the tassels all together so you have a uniform look.
