The crafty, affordable and personalized alternative.
As much as I'd love a pair of real Chanel earrings, I simply can't afford them with all the craft supplies I've got to buy, and if I did get some, everyone else would be wearing them too. So here's my cheap, crafty and personalized alternative!

Step 1First of all you're going to need to make a template -unless your name is Cat then you can just use my template (I suggest printing out my template anyway so that you can get your size right).
-
Step 2Draw around the template on to shrink plastic. I used white but you can pick whatever colour you like. Remember to flip the template and draw the reverse too. I only wanted one earring but if you want two, do this twice, so that you have 4 letters in total.
-
Step 3Cut these letters out. Use a cutting knife to cut the smaller, inside letters out. Lay one on top of the other in the position you would like them to go.
-
Step 4Hold the letter and it's reverse together and punch a hole at the top, in the middle, through both letters.
-
Step 5Shrink the letters in the oven until small.
-
Step 6Line up the two holes and glue one letter on top of the other.
-
Step 7Embellish with rhinestone crystals. Use tweezers to pick them up, dab in strong, clear adhesive glue and stick in place.
-
Step 8Slip a jump ring through the hole, slip on to a chain and attach the chain to an earring hook.
-
Step 9Wear proudly and go craft shopping with all the money you've saved :D
