Interesting way of making earrings by converting clip earrings to post earrings
2010-07-08 17:42:00
If you have pierced ears, you may find a pair of clip-on earrings that you love and find to be stylish. Clip earrings are therefore very convenient and suitable for some people. Not everybody wants to be pierced, but everybody wants to be fashionable and chic. If you don't want to spend the money on a professional to convert your clip earrings into post earrings, you can convert the earrings yourself with the right tools and supplies.
Prepare adhesive remover and apply some around the base of the clip where it is attached to the back of the earrings. Let the remover sit for a minute and dissolve the glue. Use flat nose pliers to grip the base of the clip. Then gently turn and slowly pull upward the clip until the clip detaches. Be careful to make sure you will not damage the earrings itself.
Now you should scrape and wipe away the leftover adhesive and adhesive remover with a clean rag and wipe the earring dry. Use a piece of sandpaper to make the back smooth. Apply a thin layer of epoxy to the center of a flat earrings post and press it to the back of your earring. If your earrings are larger than a half inch in diameter from top to bottom, you should pay attention to glue the post closer at the top edge of the earrings back. Gently press the post for one minute and wipe away any excess glue that seeps out.
At last, leave it alone for 24 hours to dry before you put the earrings in your ears. Stick earring backs on the posts behind your earlobes so you don't lose the earrings.
