Since I’ve been attempting to write the tutorial for my Men’s Shirt to Romper project for the last 2 hours and I’m now going cross-eyed with no end in sight, I think I’ll instead share yet another project I submitted for Style Sample Magazine and New York Design Shop’s Create Couture Challenge.
Materials:

*White Rose Pin (leaves only)
*Cream Rose Pin (leaves only)
Additional Tools/Materials:
*chain earrings (basically just some french hooks and some lightweight chain)
*pliers
*2 jump rings
*scissors
*awl
How to:

1. Remove leaf sections from undersides of both rose pins.
Separate leaves and trim tops.
2. Stack 4 leaves atop one another and poke a hole in their tops using the awl. (You can also use small sharp scissors or a pin.)
3. Thread the bundle of leaves onto a jump ring.
4. Add jump ring to earring. Repeat Steps 2-4 for the remaining leaves and other earring.
Pretty easy, huh?
Fun, dangly, and lightweight – these are perfect for summer!

I love that you only used the leaves and not the petals …and that they are white and not green. They are fantastic. 🙂
Great post, I'm going to try it out as soon as I can get a hold of those flower pins, I've got everything else available though!!
I'm loving your DIY posts xx
Wow they are gorgeous! Such a good idea 🙂 Aly xx

You just have the coolest creations. <3
Too, I am mesmerized by your makeup here! What on earth are you wearing???
@…love Meagan: Thanks for being so gracious!
@L.H.: You could actually buy any silk flowers that have white and not green leaves, even from your local crafts store…or alternatively, you could paint green leaves white for this project.:-) Thanks and good luck!
@Aly: Thank you so much!:-)
@Erin (penny.LA): I appreciate your kind words:-) What was I wearing…?? I think I had on self-tanner on my face (since I can't tan naturally), and did some bronzer as well. Liquid black eyeliner on the eyes, and I think I did a M.A.C. nude lipstick on the lips, with Sally Hansen Lip Inflation plumping lipgloss over it. If memory serves me correctly..!
Thank you everyone for your kind comments!
