How to hand make earrings with pogs
2010-07-08 17:45:00
If you have some left over pogs and milk caps from your childhood games? Pogs are small cardboard discs used in a game of the same name which was very popular in the early 1990s in the United States. Pogs typically have an image on one side, and are either plain or simply patterned on the other. Here’s a way to incorporate their nostalgia into your everyday fashion.
First step, you just need to punch a small hole at the top of each pog large enough for the wire to fit through. Then cut a small piece of wire and thread it through the hole in the pog. The length of wire depends on your favorite.
Secondly, find some beads or charms, even your keys, and slip on them to compliment the colors of the pog because this is your design, and they are your earrings. Make sure you put some on both sides of wire.
Thirdly, hold the two ends of the wire together and slip them through the circular hook at the bottom of the earring hook. Holding the wires together with the earring hook threaded on as well, slip on a crimp bead over the two ends of the wire and use the pliers or a similar tool to flatten the crimp bead. This will hold the earring hook and beads together.
At last, trim off the rest of the wire beyond the crimp bead so it cannot poke out and hurt you. Now it’s time to show your creative handmade earrings with pogs. And maybe you can share your happiness with your childhood friends.
