Making Bullet Jewelry Earrings

There are many types of Bullet Jewelry Earrings and lots of different styles that anyone can make themselves.  When someone says earrings the question comes to mind: Post or Dangle.  After that you have choices of color size and background.

Perhaps my favorite and the most simple design is a basic post earring.  These can be done easily and have a very classy look without too much going on.  The most popular of the post earrings is the 38 special.  They are a medium size and the .38 special is a more rare bullet at the shooting range.  The most common manufacturer stamps is Winchester, Federal,  and Speer.  When you make your design the most important thing is to have the headstamps match.  All you do is glue (using an E6000 glue) your post on the back and swarovski crystal in the front and you are done.  Its so simple that anyone can make it.
The simple dangle is also just as easy to do.  This requires taking your bullet slice and gluing it into a bezel cup.  After you add your Swarovski Crystal all you do is add the dangle fishhook and you are done.  Its only 1 extra step from the basic post earrings and easy for anyone to do.


Now that you have the basic steps it is easy to add length or even decoration behind the bullet slice.  The sky is the limit for what you can quickly and easily glue together.  For ideas take a look at www.wholesalebulletjewelry.com you will find items you can easily purchase and add to your earring project.

You can even add length by adding an additional bullet slice and swarovski crystal.  This is perhaps my favorite pair of earrings and is actually quite simple for a beginner to do in less than an hour.

Bullet Jewelry allows anyone to add their own creativity to their unique earring project.  Whatever, Your style is You can Make it Yourself.  Have Fun, and Good Luck with your project.
