These handmade earrings made with quilling paper are perfect to make a statement – they are the ideal combination of bohemian and classy, and wearing a set like these will definitely get you noticed in an eclectic setting. The art of quilling is no longer relegated to one and two -dimensional pieces – now you can wear it, too!
The unique pieces I found below are all made from acid-free paper so you can be assured of their longevity. They have also been coated with varnish to preserve them. I’ve been thinking about making something like this for awhile (I just happened to run out of glue at an unfortunate time…😞)
I personally love the intricacy and uniqueness of each earring set thee are some I would be proud to wear. So if you are in the market for a special gift that’s one of a kind I think you will enjoy what I have here!

Check out all the teeny coils that give this set such an intricate look, I’ll bet it took awhile to make these; and the little bead dangle at the top gives these real panache. The perfect earring set for a bold, dramatic look for social events.
