Valentine's Glitter Heart earrings

I made these cute heart earrings using glitter HTV!! The inspiration came from my niece wanting some sparkly earrings :heart:

I used HTVRONT glitter HTV to make them

Supplies for 1 pair of earrings
-glitter HTV I used HTVRONT
-Design software
-cutting machine
-Mini heat press

  • Press mat
  • teflon sheet
  • Jewelry pliers (2 pair)
  • 2 jump rings
  • 2 Earring hooks
  • weeding tool
  • brayer
  • scissors

Design:
Using the design software of your choice create your design.

I used a heart shape and a circle shape and the slice feature to create my design. I also mirrored the design before cutting

Prepare material:
Set mini heat press to level 2

Cut 2 rectangles of HTV slightly larger than your design (use scissors)

Put the 2 “back/not shiny” sides together

Cover with teflon sheet and press glitter HTV together

Use light pressure for 8 - 10 seconds

Cut out design:
Use a brayer when placing Glitter HTV on mat.

Before cutting, remove the carrier sheet on the side facing up

Cut using a cutting machine

**Adjust the pressure to account for double layer of material

Weed and remove the remaining carrier sheet after cutting

Finishing touches:
Open jump ring using pliers

Place heart and earring hook in ring

Close jump ring

Repeat for other heart

** Earring tip - to keep your earrings facing the correct direction, turn the loop on the earring hook 90° or facing forward. Use 2 pair of jewelry pliers to do this by holding hook in one pair and then turn loop gently with the other.**

These earrings are super light and very cute.
