• Step 1

  Cut earbuds from wires, right at the base of the earbud (where the wire goes into the earbud).

• Step 2

  Open crimps wide using pliers.

• Step 3

  Use pliers to shape crimps around earbuds.

• Step 4

  Using super glue (or whatever type you have handy - the stronger the better) glue crimps to earbuds.

• Step 5

  Insert earring hooks through holes in crimps, and viola! Two new earbud earrings. :D

when i was making this i cut off the earbuds and discovered that the wires they use are sooo colorful. so i slid all of the wires out of the casings and am making a cool bracelet out of them. its like, extreme recycling.
