You guys this is so easy! Just requires a trip to your craft store and a glue gun.
I went to Hobby Lobby for the earring backings yesterday (they are 50% off right now) and I got the flowers at a scrapbooking store. Make sure you get non-adhesive backings for this. This craft would also be cute with vintage buttons too. Just a thought.
So take your *adorable* (non adhesive) flower embellishments and your earring backings. Just put a DROP of hot glue on the backing and stick it to your flower. Presto chango you have earrings! (or in my case you suddenly have 6 new pairs that would've costed you like $10 each and but instead they were less than a dollar!
Since I have so many pairs now I thought I'd do something for ya'll and
give a couple away (so
two winners).
I just might also throw in a couple other goodies in the box. Sounds like a party to me, what do you think?

I love these! I've been meaning to make some like them, but I always forget! Kentucky is going to be so lucky to have you!
I also follow you :)
SUPER CUTE!!!! That is an awesome idea, I see a trip to Hobby Lobby in my future.
Connie,
I found your darling blog through a friend. What a darling family!!!
Super cute earrings too.

SO adorable! I have always loved this style of earring.
Repeat after me: I Connie, would love to send these earrings to you!
See, you said so yourself :) Love them! I follow you too!
I'm a follower of your lovely blog. :)
Hey Connie,
I really like these cute little ideas you come up with. I know a while back you used a picture frame to keep your necklaces from tangling, I used that trick and love it! I can't wait to see what else you come up with. In the mean time, I'm going to go hit up Michaels and see what I can use for earrings as well. You can never have enough.
These are *really* adorable. I've had my eye on a pair really similar for a few months, but since I'm a poor college student I've never let myself buy them. If I don't win, I'm definitely going to make some!
Oh, and by the way... I found your blog awhile ago & I can't remember how. I'm Austin's big sister. I've never met you & I haven't seen Tony in forever so it's been fun to see what a cute family he (and you) have. Your little boys are seriously adorable.
I love earrings and I love your blog! I hope I win! :)
Also, I follow your blog! Okay then. Thanks! :)
Oh I love them. they are so fancy. I should make some!
Of course I follow :)
connie you are pretty much PURE genius! i am going to have to do this this weekend.. yay! thanks for the idea.
xoxo
Those earrings are so cute and they look like they have large backings. I gauged my ears (i know I know =( ) and now have a bigger hole than most earrings but these might work!!
and I follow you too!
So cute! You are always coming up with something creative.
I love following your blog! And I enjoyed our visit with you today!
Oooohh yay! :) i love those earrings! and i must agree with you on your post below: arizona oranges are THE best! like really. in the entire world.
I LOVE THESE! SO simple yet so adorable! Thanks for doing this giveaway!
I was raised by a woman who always told me if I could make something cheaper than buying it...that's the way to go.
And every time I see these little flower-y earrings/jewelery that is popular right now that's exactly what I think to myself!
Basically...you're a woman after my own heart!
P.S.
Did I mention my mom's name is Connie, too? It's like fate...kinda.
I follow and LOVE your blog!
Connie! You are so cool. Love these. I need to make some of these and then one of those pretty lace earring holders you posted about a while ago!
Oh and I follow your lovely blog!

Too cute! I'd love to win a pair of these beauties! :)
And I am a follower...and a big fan.
I've seen these all over Etsy and I have a few pairs myself, but I had no idea they were so easy to make! I thought they were made from like molds and goo or something. I didn't know you could buy the flowers pre-made. Too bad I already bought so many pairs from Etsy! I'll have to make some myself!
Which scrap booking store did you get them at?
I was told about your blog from my friend Courtney! What a cute blog!

Yes I'd love these, please!
I will have to do this craft myself when I'm back in the States--there aren't really crafting stores here.
And I have been a happy follower since '09!
I had no idea it was simple! I love them, good work!
What a fun idea, I am so going to copy this! Hopefully they have a Hobby Lobby or something like it close to where you will be living when you move!

they are so great i love them...is it possible to find them somewhere?vicky greece
What scrapbook store? I've been to Oh Scrap, Hobby Lobby, and Roberts and none have the flowers. Help! :)
Tiara, do you live in Mesa?! The place I went to is called scrapbooks etc. I'm sure you can find similar things online though. Maybe it was a seasonal item? The scrapbook store I go to changed their merchandise a little depending on the season. Who knows. Well good luck!
Thank you, Connie! I live in Utah. I'll have to look at some other, maybe smaller, scrapbook stores! :)
