© Alli Supplies Sculpey Jewelry wire Red acrylic paint Purple acrylic paint Instructions Take a small amount of Sculpey and form 2 balls. One ball per earring. Pinch the end of the ball and pull to form a small 'tail'.  Bend the wire to form an earring, keeping one end long.  Stick the long end of the wire into the top (rounded) part of the ball.  Bake for 15-20 minutes as intructed on Sculpey box. Once cool, paint using red paint. (To achieve a more realistic color, you can mix some purple with the red)  Let dry, and wear! Final Product  Credit Alli's tutorial was taken with permission. Please note that the patterns and tutorials you find here have been designed by Harry Potter fans all over the Internet. The authors alone hold the copyrights and licences to these patterns and tutorials, which means you CANNOT use their patterns to make something that you will sell to others afterwards. You can use them to make things for yourself. You can make some for your friends and ask them to pay for supplies. You CANNOT, however, ask them to pay you to do it as though you had created this pattern by yourself, or try to sell you crafts to a local store. Think about it. Would you take a Prisoner of Azkaban book, photocopy it, put your name in big red letters on the front cover and try to sell it in your local library? The answer is, obviously, no. Well, selling crafts you have made but not designed would be just as bad!

If you're a fan of podcasts & crafts, or a junkie like me, Craft Borg has a lovely tutorial for Radish Earrings this week. It's almost at the end of the show, but I didn't note the actual time of the segment. They also mention LEAKY CRAFTS (yay!) and talk a bit about Evanna Lynch's earrings.

I used the first tutorial to make radish earings for my Luna costume this year, a word of warning to anyone who uses this: The wire tends to fall out of the radishes, even if you bake it on, so be sure to secure it with a bit glue or by hooking the wire around.

Does anyone have a direct online pattern/ instrutions for making the radish earrings? Do you use red clay for the radishes, and then bake them?

Hi Hookedtothepotty, you can find two tutorials for making Luna's earrings: here and here. You'll find everything you need to know in the tutorials. For drying instructions, you should refer to the manufacturer's directions for the product the tutorial you choose calls for.
Thanks for your question.

I have a pair made from paperclay and they're very light. That's about all I can tell you. They were a gift from another crafty friend.
If you do try it out, please let us know if they're heavy. I'm sure that's a question other crafters would have as well. I know I did wonder when I saw the tutorial. -------------------- sewhooked, the home of Harry Potter Paper Piecing by Jennifer Ofenstein
