DIY: minimalist transparent prism earrings



i was hunting around my garage today for some paint to decorate this storage box i have in my room when i came across these little broken bits of lampshade/chandelier in a drawer. i immediately thought i could use these as some form of perspex/clear jewellery, very http://love-aesthetics.blogspot.co.uk!

i have a million and one pairs of little stud earrings, you know the ones you get in bulk from new look or h&m? so i decided to used some jewellery/bead wire and a bit of glue to attach the two together! voila! it's so easy and i love the result...

here's what i used: 

and the simple quick steps go from left, right, left, right... oh! and to snip away the excess wire at the end, i just used nail clippers.

leave them to dry for a few hours and you're done!!!

so there you have it :) i guess if you have old crystals or lampshades or even big beads this method can be used. however, if earrigns aren't your thing... i'm also thinking of stringing a prism from some black cord for a minimalist look necklace.. the possibilities are endless!
