13 Beautiful Earrings You Can Make Yourself

We're about to shape your destiny — or at least your spring look — by showing you how to craft these simple, sculptural earrings. A length of gold wire is all you need for this easy idea.

Whether you found the perfect pair or made a set of your own, we've always been fans of tassels, and no wonder: The light-weight embellishments make a big sartorial statement and they make a stylish handmade gift.

Personalize your pair with a favorite color, stone variety, or birthstone. Think of the mix-and-match possibilities: With a range of stone and crystal varieties, hues, and shapes, no two stone sets look the same.

These lightweight earrings require just beads, pins, earring wires, and jump rings (small wire circles) — but combine for dozens of different looks.

They may be small, but they make a big sartorial statement. Here, a simple pair of studs can be made into a stunning set of earrings.

Balsa wood can be easily cut into all sorts of shapes. Then, simply adhere designs to wood with decoupage glue. Voilà, trompe l'oeil!

For these three distinct pairs, all you need is a few beads and some findings – the term for earring posts and wires — to make earrings you won't see on anyone else.
