Faux leather is a lot of fun to craft with. It’s lightweight, so it’s perfect for earrings. I am currently obsessed with silly earrings, so I had to make some for myself.

I created these cute earrings for Valentine’s Day, but who says you can’t wear hearts year-round? And those bows are definitely appropriate all year.

If you’re new to crafting with faux leather, check out this post on cutting faux leather with a Cricut. It’s filled with details that will be skimmed over for brevity’s sake.

Bow Earrings

Please note: the bow is supposed to have two pieces so that it moves.

1. Upload the design.
2. Cut the faux leather and remove it from the mat.
3. Align the bow and the ribbon tails together.
4. Use a leather punch to add a hole to both layers.
5. Attach the bow pieces to the earring with a jump ring.
6. Repeat for the other earring.

Sugar Cookie Earrings

1. Upload the design and cut the tan cookie part with leather. (The other layers are iron-on vinyl.)
2. Mirror the image before cutting the XO part.
3. Weed the iron-on design as usual.
4. Apply the pink heart to the tan leather piece using the EasyPress mini on Low for 10 seconds. (Cover it with parchment paper to avoid melting the plastic.)
5. Remove the plastic backing from the pink heart.
6. Apply the XO over the pink heart and press for another 10 seconds.
7. Remove the plastic backing.
8. Repeat for the other earring.
9. Use the leather punch to make a hole in the top of the heart.
10. Attach the leather to the earring with a jump ring.
11. Repeat for the other earring.

Dangling Heart Earrings with Glitter Iron-on

1. Cut a small piece of glitter iron-on and the same size of faux leather.
2. Place the glitter iron-on over the faux leather.
3. Cover it with parchment paper and use the EasyPress mini on low for 10 seconds. I used heat-resistant tape to hold it in place.
4. Remove the plastic backing from the glitter.
5. Upload the design.
6. Cut the design. The glitter iron-on faux leather must be taped to stick to the mat. I used painter’s tape, but a strong washi tape will also work. Adhere to all four sides for the best results. The same settings are used for cutting faux leather (faux leather – paper thin.)
7. As shown, use a leather punch to make holes in the heart shapes.
8. Use jump rings to attach the hearts together.
9. Attach the string of hearts to an earring with another jump ring.
10. Repeat for the other earring.
