DIY Wire Wrap Christmas Tree Earrings

It doesn’t look like it, but these Christmas tree earrings were actually very easy to make. They would make a nice last-minute gift idea for some of the ladies of your list that you have yet to buy for. Granted, it is a seasonal idea, but you could turn them into ornaments as well, if you made them larger. These are probably about 2 inches tall.

Things You Will Need:
Beads
Pliers
Thick wire
Earring hooks
Thing-a-ma-JIG

I know, what the heck is a Thing-a-ma-JIG, right? It is that little peg board you see in the background. it comes with a bunch of pegs in a variety of sizes. You can get it at Michael’s for $20. It is wonderful.

 

Step 1:
Set up your peg board so that it resembles a tree (like in the image above).

 

Step 2:
Wrap your wire around the first peg, at the top. You can use pliers for this or use your fingers.

 

Step 3:
Continue to wrap the wire downward until you have something that looks like this.

*I took some of the pegs out so you are able to see the wire better. Leave the pegs in there while you are wrapping.

 

Step 4:
When you are finished wrapping the wire, you should have something like the above photos. I played around with some different ideas to end the tree with. You can do whatever you want, but I prefer the one with the beads.

Go ahead and attach your earring hooks.

There you have it, Christmas tree earrings. I hope you like them!

Happy crafting!
