More earring makeovers!

Woo so I've been getting back into earrings lately and when I was shopping the other day I picked up a little earring packet at H&M :) I liked that most of them were colorful but in the end I still ended up redoing most of them, I only eft two as they already were. 


Here is the original pack.

I stuck them in this foam stamp square while I was painting them with nail polish.

The finishing results, the only two that I didn't do anything to from the original pack were the yellow and pink squared ones. The rest I redid with the nail polish. I ended up redoing a few other pearl ones that I had in my jewelry box as well. 

Yay to bright, colorful and glittery earrings! <3

Total makeover!!


Okay so I'm pretty sure I'm not the only one who thinks this, but has everyone else noticed that when you buy a little pack of earrings there is always the ugly pair! They always throw in some random super plain and ugly pair (sometimes even two) just to fill up the little pack. Why can't they just fill it up with all cute earrings without the ugly ones that just take up space? So I decided to do something about it instead of just throwing them away since I did pay for them after all. I didn't want them, I only wanted the other two cute pairs in the pack but I was stuck with these anyway. So I thought NAILPOLISH!! What an easy and super convenient way to give these earrings some life and save them instead of having to throwing them away :) 

So I don't think this really needs much of an explanation, I just picked out some nail polish and painted them and viola! cute earrings :) 

 These were the two "fillers" Thats what I'm calling them from now on because they're just there to fill up the pack, plain gold and silver, not cute at all.

But after some glittery nail polish and an aqua one they were brought to life! haha 

Close up.


I love the sparkly/glittery ones!!

Any who I hope this helps you guys out and now you know one way of making over those filler earrings instead of having to throw them out. You can always use spray paint too but that just sounds messier especially since earrings are small so I figured nail polish was the best option.
