It seems that bright pastel colored earings are all the rage right now. Which gave me the perfect idea for a pair of my earings who's metal has become not so silver anymore.
Paint them, a bright pastel, to cover the metal and match a sweater.
Here we go.
1- Mix or find a craft paint of desired color. (I mixed a true blue and lime green to get aquamarine.)
2- Use masking tape to cover the hooks.
3- Paint fronts using a foam brush and small amounts of paint. Let dry; help from the blow dry makes this quick. Hint: you can get unwanted paint bubbles out from between the metal by blowing it out or using a toothpick.
4- Do the same to the backside. Let dry.
That's it. Take off the masking tape and you're done.
Pretty cool, huh?
