They turned out great and look pretty real! :)

Instructions

1. 

   STEP 1: Separate two balls of polymer clay, smaller than the size of a golf ball. STEP 2: Roll them both out into cones that create a point at the end. STEP 3: Bend them down like so. STEP 4: Cut a chunk of polymer clay from your earrings. Then push the earring post into it. STEP 5: Take a tiny bit of clay, squish it so its flat and put it over earring post, this helps to secure it. Smooth it out with your fingers. STEP 6: Attach the clasp part of the earring into the rest of the polymer clay piece. Use the earring to poke a hole all the way through the clasp and into the polymer clay. Make sure not to move it too much after this so you don't close the hole.

   STEP 7: Bake according to directions and after push earring into polymer clay to make a definite hole. Wear them and make a rockin' statement! :) Happy Crafting!
