1. & 2. Drill holes for the beads and earring wires and then paint the surface of the wood pieces
3. & 4. Cut out the images and glue them to the wood
*I used E-6000 Spray because the moisture relaxes the paper so it doesn't bubble
5. When the images are dry, punch through the holes with a toothpick
6. Seal the images with a polycrylic or decoupage medium
7. Create the dangly bits on a head pin with the pliers and make sure to bend a loop at the top
*You will need 3 dangly bits per earring so 6 per pair
8. Hand them from the holes with jump rings
9. Glue clips on the backs of another pair with E-6000 Glue
