Just looking at these beautiful faux silver earrings. I am not sure you would guess the material they are made out of. Would you be surprised if I told you they were made out of hot glue and not silver at all? This month I am joining a group of Craft Lightning Bloggers who are creating 15-minute crafts using hot glue as their medium. These earrings are really quick and easy to make and take much less than 15 minutes without the drying time - which really doesn't take much more time! Read through the tutorial below and see how easy they are to make.

Materials:

• hot glue gun with glue
• earring post and support

Directions:

The process for these faux silver earrings is really quick and easy. I think the small size of the earring makes them more believable as real silver earrings. 

working quickly, fill your mold with hot glue

the hot glue dries quickly, then pop out the shape
if you need too, use scissors to trim away any unwanted parts

attach the earring back to the hot glue piece
I used more hot glue to do this

here it is attached
doing this before painting make the application of color much easier to handle

brush your chosen color of nail polish onto the hot glue
I am using a silver nail polish

wearing the earrings, they really do look like silver

The best part, you can easily change the color to match your outfit by using a different color of nail polish.
