Nail polish earrings

After looking at Chalkboard Nails post I was so inspired - I thought I can do that! So thanks to her link I made an account at Etsy and low and behold here I am. I must admit I've gone a bit crazy - just because these are so easy and fun to make.

I used 12mm cabochons and a variety of blanks. I found using a small amount of bluetack (putty) to hold the cab in place worked best and then I painted the reverse (flat) side.

When they were dry I used superglue to place them in the blanks. It does require a bit of thought as you have to work in reverse so with the stamping I stamped the image, topcoated (to protect the image from smudging) and then did the polish colour.

So here's some of what I've made so far . . .
