I went to the mall & walked around - which I don't often do because I don't like to torture myself with things I would love to have - but can't buy since I'm perpetually broke :P I love rings - I love them so so so much, but I don't get to buy rings very often & I have a hard time finding craft supplies here in the Philippines so I have to improvise. Ring bases made out of a set of earrings I was never fond of - I used random bits & bobs I have in my jewelry box & I just figured I'd show how I did it here :D

Description

I went to the mall & walked around - which I don't often do because I don't like to torture myself with things I would love to have - but can't buy since I'm perpetually broke :P I love rings - I love them so so so much, but I don't get to buy rings very often & I have a hard time finding craft supplies here in the Philippines so I have to improvise. Ring bases made out of a set of earrings I was never fond of - I used random bits & bobs I have in my jewelry box & I just figured I'd show how I did it here :D

Instructions

  1. Small img 4203 1305648819

    I started out with these swirly earrings & I looped out the smaller top circle to separate it from the rest of the earring.

    Size the loops to your finger until you're happy, the rest bend upwards to create the ring base. The larger part on the bottom goes around my finger, the smaller part on top is the base.

    Drop a bit of glue from hot glue gun & place the tule accent Add more glue all around the ring base & glue the statement piece :D I used this plastic flower that fell off of a clip ages ago. Ta-da :D
