For these festive earrings, I started with a base of faux leather to give them structure and a soft, lightweight feel. I added the red glitter mug layer using HTVRONT Glitter HTV for that cozy holiday sparkle. The snowman details—his bright white body and little orange carrot nose—were created with HTVRONT Pure heat transfer vinyl, giving the design clean, crisp pops of color.
Once all the layers were pressed and assembled, I glued the faux leather back piece to the front piece with wood glue, laid them on a silicone mat, which I folded over top and placed a book on top to keep them flat. I periodically checked them to wipe glue away that seeped out of the edges. I let them dry and cure for 24 hours before adding earring hardware.
The snowmen looked like they were melting right into their glittery mugs, complete with tiny hats and snowflake accents. The finished earrings are playful, cheerful, and perfect for adding a little winter whimsy to any outfit.

I think they’re cute, too! Probably my favorite of all the pairs I made, today.
