FAUX LEATHER EARRING TUTORIAL
Big earrings have made their way into 2021, and let’s be honest… We all want to rock some!! Fun-shaped earrings can transform your whole outfit, I mean, accessorizing is key amiright?? I’ve heard through the grapevine that Joanna Gaines is responsible for making faux leather earrings trendy, which doesn’t surprise me given that she is the CEO of starting new trends. What is SO nice about this trend is how easy and inexpensive they are to make with the Cricut!! Keep reading to see how YOU can make these earrings at home (and snag a free earring template!!)
These are the materials you will need to make your earrings. I got these faux leather sheets along with an earring-making kit and pliers from Amazon, and they were all included in a bundle; there are a lot of options like this on Amazon, and a wide variety of colored leather sheets are available for purchase. For this tutorial, I am using the Deep Point Blade + Housing cutting blade for Cricut. This specific faux leather is thin enough to be cut with the standard blade, but I use the deep point just to be safe. Finally, I use my Cricut Maker, but you can use the Explore Air 2 for this project as well.
