10 Minute Craft: Queen Bee Earrings

Got ten minutes? Then you’ve got enough time to make these punny earrings and show ’em who’s Queen Bee. Heck, you can make up a whole hive’s worth! In fact, you can make these Queen Bee Earrings in just three easy steps, just stamp, ink, connect and wear! Even the busiest gal has time for that. And don’t be afraid, the new Soft Strike pewter stamping blanks from ImpressArt make it easy to make a great first impression. You got this!

What you need:

2 ImpressArt Stamping Blank Washer, 15/16-Inch, Pewter
2 Fine Silver Plated Pewter Small Honey Bee Charms
2 Beadalon 10-MM Jump Ring, Silver Plated
2 Beadalon Dapped and Spring Ear Wire, Silver Plated
ImpressArt Newsprint Stamps in Lowercase and Uppercase
ImpressArt 2 by 2-Inch Steel Block
Ergo-Angle Metal Stamping Hammer
ImpressArt Stamp Straight Tape
ImpressArt Bent Nose Pliers
ImpressArt Chain Nose Pliers
Cotton swab
Paper towel

Step one: Stamp ‘Q u e e n’ on each blank. Start at the bottom center with the letter ‘e’ and work up each side, spacing your letters evenly as in photo. Step two: Use cotton swab to dab ink into letters. Wipe excess off of surface with paper towel, leaving ink in the stamped areas. Step three: Connect the washer, charm and ear wire in that order to a 10mm jump ring using the bent and chain nose pliers. You may need to gently turn the loop at the bottom of your ear wire so they hang forward. Step four: Wear them with pride because you made them!

“You can call me Queen Bee,
and baby I’ll rule, I’ll rule,
let me live that fantasy.”
Lorde

These Queen Bee Earrings would make a lovely Mother’s Day gift too, I’m just sayin’.

Step one: Center your tulip stamp making sure the entire stamp is in contact with the pewter blank. Strike top of stamp once with a firm tap. (Design Tip Don’t hit the stamp more than once to prevent skipped or ghost impressions.) Step two: Use the round end of a ball pein hammer to create texture around the edge of your blank. Step three: add a hole at the center bottom of your blank using the smaller side of the 2-hole punch. Step four: Swipe black acrylic paint, multi-surface paint or jewelry glaze across surface of blank. Allow it to set for a minute and then wipe clean with a paper towel.

Step five: Place blank in dapping block with stamped side facing up. Strike top of dapping tool with your brass hammer, moving the tool around in the dapping block to curve or round your blank. Step six: Strike the blank working from the edges into the center using the texture hammer. Alternate the placement of the hammer so you get a nice variety of marks. Step seven: Add paint. Step eight: Remove paint.

Step Nine: Use smaller side of 2-hole punch to add a hole to the top of each of your textured blanks. Step Ten: Attach the blanks together as shown using pliers to open and close jump ring securely. Step Eleven: Attach ear wire to top of each earring. Step Twelve: Make two!
