@alijahndanthony Yes it was...It was OPI Nail Lacquer ....I purchased it from a dollar tree store....Most discount stores should have it....

[ccbejar85]

when its cold or weird weather, does the nail polish bubble up?

[Ghett0ProuD]

@ccbejar85 Not at all....I Put about 2 layers of it on and allowed it to dry for 24 hrs...

[Ghett0ProuD]

@Lightnin97 I purchased the white Folk Art paint from Michaels...The Other Colors were Fabric Paints That I purchased From Walmart...

I'm very glad I saw you pick up the file in the end- I know how sharp the metal can get once it is cut! Haha, I'd really hate to be the person who didn't file them and ripped their ear up because of it! =x

[Ghett0ProuD]

@BeyondBracelets Lol...Oh...Trust Me .Ive made that mistake before....

[BeyondBracelets]

@Ghett0ProuD Haha oh ow... you poor girl... well, I guess you learned first hand how important filing is then!

[alibunta]

do u prepair the earrings before you paint them?

[Ghett0ProuD]

@alibunta

Sometimes I do. It all depends on the repair. If all i have to repair are the pins, then i just add them carefully at the end since its easier to handle without it.

nice, a good way to make something old look new again

[Ghett0ProuD]

@lovelydiva06

Thanks!  :)

[lovelydiva06]

@Ghett0ProuD hey what kind of products did you use and where can i buy them

[Ghett0ProuD]

@lovelydiva06

The White Base was an acrylic paint by Folk Art. You can purchase them from Michaels. The other paints that i used were all fabric paints by Tulip That you can purchase from walmart and/or michaels. :)

[lovelydiva06]

@Ghett0ProuD hey did you remove the pin while painting them, if so is it hard to remove the pin and how do you remove the pin anyway, i'm trying to learn how to do my own earrings as well

[Ghett0ProuD]

@lovelydiva06 I did remove it. i actually replaced it. it isnt hard to do at all. I used a round nose pliers to open up the closed end. and thats pretty much it....when youre ready to put it back on...use the round nose pliers again to close it up again...Thats Cool! Im learning as well....from my mother.... :)
