What's involved with attaching that second kind of earring hook you used (I have some of the kidney-shaped ones but to me they're not very user friendly and would rather use the other kind that appear in your pics at the end)? Is it just a matter of opening up one end with a pair of pliers? I made a pair of earrings tonight with some stuff I had on hand so I wanted to figure out how to attach the other kind of hooks so I could wear them. :o)Annehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16358261988207658211noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5874630949966963905.post-5259045753980767732011-12-16T16:14:17.291-08:002011-12-16T16:14:17.291-08:00Hi!

We loved how...Thank you for all of your comments!! We loved how they turned out!<br /><br />Here is the cost break down: First the charms I bought for 50% off at Hobby Lobby. At 50% off they are super cheap about $.75 - 1.25/pair. The earring hooks were cheap too running about $3 for 30 hooks. The paint, glaze, and polycrylic I already had on hand, so for me it was free. If you have to buy them the acrylic paint is anywhere from .50 - 2.00 a bottle, depending on where and when (on sale) you buy it. The large bottle of glaze I used was $15 at Lowes, however you can buy much smaller versions of glaze or mediums at your local craft stores for about $3. The polycrylic I bought at Lowes or Home Depot, you can use any type of sealer, polycrylic versions are better than polyurethane because they don't yellow your paint. There are also semi-gloss sealers available at craft stores for anywhere from $3- 7 dollars. So to summarize for the if you don't have the supplies on hand already you definitely will want to make more than one pair to spread out your total out of pocket costs.<br /><br />Charms 15 pairs = $11.75<br />Hooks 15 pairs = $3.00<br />Paint (2 bottles) = $3.00 (on hand free)<br />Glaze = $3.00 (on hand free)<br />Sealer = $3.00 (on hand free)<br />Total = $23.75 -14.75<br /><br />$1.58 - $.98 a pairBritthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11401431377813374737noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5874630949966963905.post-15758047376092372042011-12-14T10:04:23.244-08:002011-12-14T10:04:23.244-08:00there are surely beautiful…but how about the total...there are surely beautiful…but how about the total expense on each earring?anjalihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01484802362263632569noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5874630949966963905.post-23340066881274549302011-12-14T07:20:22.704-08:002011-12-14T07:20:22.704-08:00Love these.
