DIY Lovely Felt Heart Shaped Earrings with Beads

Felt earrings are very light and you can wear them all day long without burden. Another reason I choose felt to DIY with is that I can embroider on felt and arrange beads in any way I like. I make this pair of felt heart shaped earrings by using a black piece of felt as base then laying some broken pieces of felt in different colors atop. Some simple stitches are also sewed to make them more unique.
