Earrings are easy to make and whether you are a first-time crafter or love DIY these are both stunning and original designs by educator Christine Smalley. Make two pair of designer earrings and follow Christine in a pre-recorded step by step online tutorial.

With your craft box, you can make up to two pairs of earrings in your choice of colour.

These 'Diamond' earrings are made from a delicately ornate brass element and fringed with Czech glass oval facetted beads. Exaggerated forms and gilded metallics make this vintage modern chandelier earring design an elegant statement. Plus, they are so lightweight and therefore incredibly comfortable to wear!

You will learn:

  • How to link beads and filigree charms together.
  • Professional tips on earring assembly and design.
  • About jewellery parts and how to use them.
  • Different elements from beads to charms and why they are your sustainable and ethical style choice.

We include a bonus pair of ear hooks if you want to make your earrings shorter and make a second pair of earrings.

The design is sustainable, with brass being the most eco of all metals with its small footprint. If you're looking for fun things to do at home, reach out for one of our jewellery making DIY kits inspired by our best selling ready-made designs, which are just like making from scratch, only easier! Plus this earring kit comes with a step by step video tutorial in these times of physical distancing.

All materials for the kit design are supplied. Please choose from the below colours at checkout: (see photos)

'Diamond' length: 12cm
Colour Options:
1. Aqua
2. Coral
3. Camel
4. Black, Christine wears them in both images


I believe in the power of adornment and creativity and have designed a craft box for you to design, make and play using beautiful and original elements sourced ethically and globally.
My goal is to inspire your notable style and embrace the maker culture: seeking beauty, slow, ethical and local.

Make it. Wear it. Live it.
