This will be just about the easiest DIY you will ever do, and will take all of five minutes. For my supplies, I used buttons from a bag I bought at a vintage store. I have also used this method to make clip-on earrings into studs. I find clip-ons to be just about the most uncomfortable accessories ever. How did people ever wear clip-ons anyway?
Supplies:
- Wire cutters
- Earring backs (can be found in the jewelry aisle of most craft stores)
- Old buttons or clip-on earrings
- Hot glue gun or craft glue, such as Gorilla Glue
Instructions:
Using your handy-dandy wire cutters, clip off the button shanks and try to get the back as flat as possible.
Put a dot of glue in the center of the back of the button and press on an earring back. Pick of any excess glue.
Done! See, wasn’t that easy?
