introducing the brand new tutorial by me....
oh yeah. that's right. i finally got around to making you lovely people a tutorial. :) It's my vintage inspired graphic branch/twig earring holder! It's very useful and pretty if i do say so myself!
anyways... no more blabbing... on to the tutorial~
supplies:
- a dead branch/twigs {make sure they're small enough your earrings fit on them.}
- acrylic paints in desired colors {you want about 3-5 colors}
- a paintbrush
- small yarn/thread. embroidery floss would work.
 |
| start with your twig. {i only have my largest one in this picture... i used three but any amount can be used.} |
 |
| mix your paints and start painting it in bands of differing size. leave spaces between some bands and overlap others. |
 |
| it's up to you... but i think that leaving some branch showing here and there looks better than completely covering it in paint. |
 |
| paint all your twigs |
 |
| take your string and tie it to the branches keeping them level. remember to leave enough space between them for your earrings to hang. |
 |
| hang on your wall and put your earrings on it! |

Let me know what you think!
