  • In this video I share how I made these cut faux leather earrings. These diy leather earrings are great because you can pick any three colors of faux leather (or faux suede). They're great leather earrings because you can pick colors that match a high school, a college, or a national sports team. DIY leather earrings make great gifts for Christmas and other occasions.

    The linked leather punch looks different than the leather punch in your video. The one in the video looks easier to use; the linked punch offers smaller hole sizes. What type did you use? What hole size did you choose for the earrings?

    Thank you for this video! I love how they came out! With the kit that you ordered from Amazon, did you use the stencils as well for each shape or did you just get different designs from the web?

    • @myinspirationcorner4499
      @myinspirationcorner4499  4 роки тому

      I haven’t used any of the stencils. I think those would be great for someone that wants to make earrings but doesn’t have a Cricut. I used an SVG file from the web. I just uploaded it into Cricut Design Space. I have used a few different ones for this type of earring. The important thing is that the top isn’t too pointy.

    What size jump ring do you recommend?

    • @myinspirationcorner4499
      @myinspirationcorner4499  4 роки тому +3

      I usually use a 6mm jump ring any time I am making stacked earrings. If I am doing an earring with just one piece and it isn’t very thick I sometimes use 4mm. I normally use two jump rings per earring and typically I keep them the same size.

      Hi Mia. I only showed one pair for the video instructions of preparing the earrings. But I actually added more earrings by duplicating the files before I cut these.

    • @myinspirationcorner4499
      @myinspirationcorner4499  4 роки тому

      It is so frustrating when that happens. Which material is it happening on? When it happens, I try a few things. First, I pull out out the blade and wipe any debris off it (it’s surprising how messy things can get). Then I play with settings for the material. The one kind of faux leather that never works for me is the Hobby Lobby black faux leather ribbon. The buffalo check is thicker and cuts well. I used a sheet of black faux leather from an Amazon kit. Also, what setting are you using? My other problems happen when I am not using a pretty new mat.
