Okay, so I’ve been seeing these tarot card earrings everywhere lately, and I gotta say, I was intrigued. I’m not really into the whole tarot reading thing, but the designs are just so cool and unique! I mean, who wouldn’t want to wear their favorite card as a fashion statement, right? So, I decided to make my own tarot card earrings. You know, to add a little bit of that mystical vibe to my everyday look.
First, I started looking for some inspiration online. I browsed through a ton of pictures and saved the ones I liked the most. There were so many different styles! Some were simple and minimalist, others were super detailed and ornate. I decided to go for something in between. Not too plain, but not too extra either.
Next, I needed to find some actual tarot cards. I didn’t want to use a brand new deck, so I headed to a few thrift stores and antique shops in my area. After a bit of searching, I finally found an old, worn-out deck that looked perfect. The cards had this vintage feel that I really digged.
Once I had the cards, I needed to figure out how to turn them into earrings. I thought about just punching holes in them and attaching some earring hooks, but that seemed a bit too basic. So, I did some more research and found a cool technique using resin. It looked like a fun way to preserve the cards and make them more durable.
I gathered all the materials I needed: resin, earring hooks, jump rings, some glitter, and a few other bits and bobs. Then, I got to work! I carefully coated each card with resin, making sure to get rid of any air bubbles. I added a pinch of glitter for some extra sparkle, because why not? Once the resin cured, I attached the earring hooks using jump rings. It was a bit fiddly, but I managed to get it done.
- Selected the cards I wanted to use.
- Coated them with resin and added glitter.
- Waited for the resin to cure (this took the longest!).
- Attached the earring hooks.
The Result
And voila! My very own handmade tarot card earrings! I was so happy with how they turned out. They looked even better than I imagined. I’ve been wearing them everywhere, and I always get compliments on them. They’re definitely a conversation starter. Plus, they make me feel a little bit magical, which is always a good thing, right?
It’s a way for me to express my own personal style. I think they look pretty awesome, and I’m really proud of myself for making them. If you’re thinking about getting into the tarot jewelry trend, I say go for it! It’s a fun and easy way to add some personality to your wardrobe. Just trust your instincts and go with what feels right. It is a unique way to express your beliefs and interests. That is also a great way to show off your style and personality.
