How to Make DIY Avocado Clip On Earrings

Cute DIY Clip On Avocado Earrings

It’s easy to make these cute DIY avocado clip on earrings, so you can show off your love of avocados and guacamole.

They are perfect to wear for game day, Cinco de Mayo, taco Tuesday or any day you’d like to let others know how much you like this fruit.

Yes, avocados are fruit and not a vegetable.

The earrings are simple to make, even if this is your first attempt at homemade jewelry.

And, clip ons are great for anyone to wear.

Avocado Charms

There are a variety of styles of avocado charms available, so you can choose whichever ones suit your style.

Mine are cute and made from polymer clay, but you can also choose charms made from other materials.

Just make it easy and choose charms that already have loops attached instead of beads, which makes it simple to put these earrings together.

If you can wait a little while, save money by ordering avocado charms from Ali Express.

Or order from Amazon for speedy delivery.

Adjustable Clips

There are different types of earring clips for jewelry making.

Personally, I like the ones that have a screw to adjust them.

Set the screw to the right position to comfortably and securely fit your ear lobe.

Then you can flip them open and closed with the hinge without having to readjust the screw each time you wear them.

I find them very comfortable to wear and they stay put on my ears.

If you prefer another style of clip on earrings, that’s fine, too.

Whichever type you use, you’ll want to choose findings that have a loop on them to easily attach the charm.

Jump Rings

If this is your first time making jewelry at home, you can pick up an inexpensive package of jump rings to use now and on future DIY projects.

The small rings have an opening that you can open up with pliers and then close it up again when your jewelry components are in place.

They come in different sizes and in different types of metal.

You can use jump rings to match the other jewelry findings you are using or you can mix and match, if you’d like.

Other Pierced Earring Options

If you’d like to make avocado pierced earrings, that’s easy, too.

Choose whatever type of hooks or hoops you’d like to pair with the avocado charms.

Avocado jewelry is fun, and it’s even better when you have made it yourself.

Needle Nose Pliers

Pliers are a big help, when you are making your own jewelry.

Needle nose pliers are handy to open up jump rings and attach your jewelry components.

I find it easiest to use pliers with a short pointed tip, but you may like a longer tip.

You can use regular household needle nose pliers, if you already have them on hand.

Or you can get comfortable needle nose jewelry pliers to keep with your other DIY jewelry tools and supplies.
