Step 1: Paint the Acrylic Rounds
Start by painting your acrylic rounds with yellow paint to create the base color of your lemon earrings. I used satin acryllic outdoor paint to make what you see pictured but I think chalk paint would work better for a fuller coverage and smoother matte look. Allow the paint to dry completely before adding additional coats or moving on to the next step.Step 2: Add Details with Vinyl
Once the paint is dry, use your Cricut machine to cut out lemon slices from yellow vinyl and leaves from green vinyl. Use transfer tape to carefully apply the vinyl cutouts to the painted acrylic rounds to create the lemon design.Step 3: Assemble the Earrings
Next, assemble your earrings using the jewelry kit. Attach a jump ring to each acrylic round and then attach an earring hook to the jump ring using pliers. Repeat this process for the second earring.Step 4: Make a Matching Earring Holder
To create the holder, we'll need to use this design space project template. Use the Print-then-cut feature and your printable vinyl to create the covers you can peel and stick onto the chipboard.
Step 5: Enjoy Your Lemon-Themed Accessories!
Once the earrings and holder are complete, it’s time to show them off! Wear your lemon-themed earrings with pride and display them on your matching holder when they’re not in use.And there you have it! With just a few simple materials and a little creativity, you can create your own lemon-themed earrings and holder that are sure to add a pop of freshness to your style or could even make a great lemon-themed bridesmaid proposal gifts too! Happy crafting! 💙
