After all of the projects I have used these flowers in I had 2 lonely little flowers left, the first thing that came to mind was to make earrings out of them.
It is a very simple project I just took a medium sized circular bead and placed it on a flat head pin and then placed my silk flower and then a few green beads (for the "stem"). To close the head pin I grabbed my needle nose pliers and bent it into a circle trimming any extra head pin that wasn't needed. Before it was completely closed I looped it onto the hole on the earring hook.
Next I took some different green beads to make my "leaves" with. I got one of my flat head pins and slid on 2 or 3 beads and then closed it up like I did with the flower one. I did that 3 times so my flower ends up with 3 "leaves". Once that was done I had one earring so I repeated it and made the other.
