I completed the nautical and Eiffel tower earrings for which I described stiffening the parts in the last post. Well, actually I already finished them on Friday but then ended up not writing a post yet :)
Using the Mod Podge to stiffen them worked pretty good and I will do that again. There are some other methods which are not as easy though.
I just Googled "Stiffen Crochet" and found a ton of articles.
I do have to say that putting the crochet pieces on a Cardboard to dry was not a good idea.
One of the pieces almost gave me a heart attack when some of the cardboard was stuck to it. Yikes!
Luckily I managed to peel it off without any residue or damaging the piece - Pew!
Next time I will use some fabric underneath.
I assembled the crochet pieces with some jump rings and made these two earrings.
I also listed them on Etsy already:
Yesterday I started a Facebook page for my Etsy shop, which will hopefully help with sales. Labels: anchor, blue, Craft, crafts, crochet, earrings, Eiffel Tower, Etsy, Facebook, heart, Jewelry, nautical, Paris
