Bloody Earrings

In the spirit of Halloween, here's just a quick, fun crafty project you can do yourself if you wanted!  All you need is a hot glue gun, red spray paint or nail polish, needle nose pliers, earring hooks, and a solid surface. A piece of glass or plexi glass is preferrable. 

Although the earrings in this pic are fairly rough, this is my very first shot at making them. 


All you do is, with the glue gun, make some drips on the surface. But before you do that make sure you lightly coat the surface with a little cooking oil or something to make sure the glue drips peel off easily. I learned this the hard way as I used plexi and the glue dries fairly quickly. Then you can apply the red colour. I used nail polish. Then after that dries, you can either make a twisty loop with some wire or directly attach them onto the earring hook's wire loop.  Either way, this is done with the needle nose pliers to close the loop properly. And although the glue maybe dry, it's still soft enough to poke wire through. 

And there you have it!  A pair of bloody earrings of ghoulish delight. I hope you've enjoyed this brief tutorial and have yourself a fun and happy Halloween!
