Paint Tags

Paint your tags with your nail polish colors. I used a metallic purple and then a clear glitter overcoat. *Note: When painting on the wooden tag the color darkened. So you may need a few base coats. Or try a base color like white, or even a clear coat then top it with the color of choice. Play around with it, have fun!

Let Your Tag Dry

Notice on the photo that I missed a few spots of glitter nail polish. Since these are small and worn as earrings you don't see the boo-boos. Plus when covered with the Mod Podge it blends in well. So the perfectionist in me had to point it out, but I refrained from fixing it. Huge accomplishment. It won't happen again. LOL

Add Modge Podge Dimensional Magic

Add your Modge Podge Dimensional Magic and bring it to the edges with a toothpick.

Let Dry

Repeat on Other Side

Repeat the previous steps on the other side of your tag.

Attach Hardware

Attach your jump rings and ear hook. Voila! Cute earrings.

(Sorry guys didn't think to show how to add the hardware...if you need help I'll post it.)
