Jelly Bean Earrings

I'm starting to think about Easter.
One year I made these earrings for my sister who is a nurse. She wears scrubs at work and the only cute or funny thing they can wear is earrings and cute socks. I sent two pair of earrings so she could wear one of each color. She prefers post earrings. I made an ID clip that had the "Who ate all the jelly beans?" graphic on it and hoped that her patients would smile.

These are real jelly beans that I put a head pin through and then dipped in Envirotex Lite resin.

  2. Oooh! Love them! I'm a nurse in a college health center and although the kids try to be cool about it, they really do enjoy holiday dress-up things we do (pins, scarves, socks.... we're pretty casual). But who would have ever thought of Jelly Bean Earrings??? I could make enough for everyone with one 99¢ bag!
    Thanks for a very fun idea--

    PS: Have I mentioned how happy I am to have you back? Oh, I did? Well, I think that I get happier every time I come back and you're here. Thank you a million times over.

  4. I am just imagining this: "the only cute or funny thing they can wear is earrings and cute socks"
    She must have worn something else or the patients would never calm down.
