Halloween Earrings with Pumpkin, Bat, Witch, and RIP Tombstone

DIY Halloween Earring Directions

Materials Needed:

• 1/25” black acrylic sheet
• Bright orange spray paint
• Glossy polyurethane spray (clear)
• Earring hardware (hooks, jump rings, etc.) – a multipack from Michaels (~100 sets for about $10)

1. Gather Materials

• Collect all of the above before starting to ensure a smooth workflow.

2. Prepare the Acrylic

• Place the black acrylic on a protected surface.
• Spray 4–5 light coats of bright orange paint, letting each coat dry fully before the next.
• Light coats are key for a clean engrave.
• Make sure the paint is 100% dry and not tacky before moving on.

3. Engrave & Cut

• Load your earring design file into xTool Creative Space.
• Position and focus the laser on the prepared acrylic.
• Engrave and cut the pieces for each earring set.

4. Seal the Surface

• Take the finished pieces outdoors or to a well-ventilated space.
• Apply a light coat of clear glossy polyurethane spray to protect the painted surface.
• Allow to dry completely.

5. Assemble

• Use the earring hardware kit to attach hooks and jump rings.
• Tighten gently so pieces move freely without slipping off.

6. Gift or Sell

• Package as a fun, handmade gift—or stock up for your Halloween market booth.
• These earrings are lightweight, durable, and ready to delight anyone who loves Halloween style.
