Fashion Tips: Alternative Uses For Clip-On Earrings

Whether you've lost a clip-on earring and don't know what to do with the remaining one, or you've recently gotten your ears pierced and have no use for the clip-ons anymore, there are tons of ways to use the clip-ons to dress up other items. Below is a list of suggestions for recycling the earrings for sale.

 

Clothing:

 

 

Clamp one earring above the top button on a blouse. The look is beautiful, especially if the earring is a cameo, large flat pearl, or something elegant.

 

Wrap a scarf around your shoulders, then use the earring to clip the scarf together, in the front of the blouse. With the right dress, a bandana looks cute with a clip-on to hold it.

 

Scrunch a 3/4 sleeve to a short sleeve size, then use the earring to clip it, on the outside arm area.

 

Clip an earring on the top opening of high heels. If the clip-on hardware bothers you, remove it and use adhesive to attach the earring itself to the shoe.

 

 

Hair:

 

Fix hair as usual, then clip the earrings into the hair. Or, clamp one earring onto a ponytail tie and style hair. You can also remove the clip-on hardware and glue the earring to a barrette.

Accessories:

 

Clip different types of earrings around a belt. Clip one earring on the top side, then one on the bottom and so on. Or, just clip the earrings around the top of the belt. You can also remove the hardware from the earrings and glue the remaining portions, in various areas, onto the belt. If that's too much for your style, just clip a very pretty earring on to the back of your belt. You can clip other things into the earring, like a strand of tiny beads or strips of leather.
