Fall earrings

I was busy making earrings over the past week. All faux leather was cut on my Cricut Maker machine. The SVGs are from Amy Romeu's Faux Leather Crafter's Club.

It does not yet feel like Fall here (we are still having 90-100 degree days). I am trying to manifest a Fall vibe with earrings.

These were very easy since they only took faux leather in various shades of brown. I tried the stacked earrings for the first time. Me and jump rings often do not make good friends. I was pleasantly surprised how well the jump rings worked. Maybe it is just when I am trying to use them to attach the earring hook that they revolt. I can never, despite watching numerous youtube videos and reading tutorials get my earrings to face the correct direction if I attach them with jump rings. I have finally thrown in the towel on that front. Earring hooks that are all one piece are what I purchase currently. I just slip the earring onto the hook and squeeze the opening closed with my fingers. My earrings always hang correctly when I use those hooks. I do almost always back my earrings with iron on foil, but still. You wear the design so everyone can see it, not the foil on the back.

The length of the stacked earrings is a little off on one of them. The hole punch had an accident too close to the edge so I had to punch another hole. Totally user error - I will just stand with my head cocked to the side and it will look perfect LOL.
