On my recent visit to Kolkata, I came across a street shopkeeper selling quirky and classy earrings. I stopped by to purchase and I was shocked with the prices. The earrings were merely of Rs 10 and Rs 20. The shopkeeper explained that these are handmade earrings and so the prices. I was impressed and decided to buy a few for myself. Scroll down to learn how you can make earrings at home.
A Step-By-Step To Make Earrings At Home
Here’s the process to make earrings at home:
Step 1: Gather The Material
You will need a few materials to make the earrings which include headpins, french hook earwires, and beads. You can also use design elements like feathers, plastic, glass crystals etc.
Step 2: Thread The Beads
Now take the headpins and thread the beads into them. The number of beads will depend on the size of the beads, the headpin, and how long you want your earrings to be. You can experiment with different colours and bead sizes to determine the style.

Step 3: Curl The Headpin
Now take a plier and curl the tops of the headpin to form a complete loop. Take one of the French hook ear wires and open it on one side. Slip the hook through the loop you made on the end of the headpin. Now close the open hook using the plier and tighten it nicely so that the earrings won’t fall apart.
Step 4: Repeat
Repeat the same process to make other bead earrings.
Step 5: If you don’t want to make bead earrings then you can directly use the feathers or other fancy materials to attach with the hook.
