How to Make Boho Earrings with Dried Oranges and Beads

How to Make Boho Earrings with Dried Oranges and BeadsWearing these earrings feels like carrying a little piece of summer sunshine with you.

The translucent orange slice catches the light like amber, while beads dangle below like drops of dew.

Each pair is slightly different, making them one-of-a-kind works of art.

Handmade jewelry like this doesn’t just accessorize, it tells a story of creativity, nature, and individuality.

Materials Needed

  • 2 small dried orange slices (approx. 1.5-2 inches wide)
  • 2 earring hooks (gold or silver tone)
  • 4-6 headpins or eye pins for beads
  • Assorted beads (glass, wood, or metal for accent)
  • Jewelry pliers (round-nose and flat-nose)
  • Small hand drill or thick needle
  • Clear varnish or sealant (optional)

Step-by-step Guide

Step 1: Make a small hole at the top of each dried orange slice using a hand drill or heated needle. Be gentle to avoid cracking the slice.

Step 2: Insert a jump ring through the hole, and attach it to an earring hook. Then close the ring securely with pliers.

Step 3: Use headpins to string beads, then form small loops at the ends with round-nose pliers.

Step 4: Attach the beaded pins to the bottom edge of the orange slice, creating a dangling fringe. Mix bead colors for a boho effect.

Step 5: (Optional) Brush the orange slices lightly with clear varnish to make them sturdier and water-resistant. Let dry completely.

Step 6: Repeat the process for the second earring, making sure both look balanced.

Step 7: Try them on and enjoy your new, nature-inspired jewelry.

Tips:

If you want a lighter version, use smaller citrus like dried lime or kumquat slices. They’ll create a delicate, subtle look compared to larger orange slices.
