Handcrafted wooden stud earrings with cute cupcake design

Score and cut the design. The size should be fine for a stud earring set, but feel free to adjust it, if you want to.

If your laser-cut pieces have rough edges, lightly sand them for a smooth painting surface. This will help the paint go on evenly.

1. One cupcake liner pink, one blue:
   • Paint one base light pink and the other light blue to create a cute mismatched look.
   • Add thin vertical lines in a slightly darker shade to give the wrapper a realistic folded effect.

Let the paint dry before moving on.

Use white paint to create the swirly frosting on top. Apply 1-2 coats for full coverage, if needed, Once dry, you can lightly shade the bottom edges of the frosting with a tiny bit of light brown to add depth.

Once the paint is fully dry, apply a clear acrylic sealer to protect your earrings. A glossy finish will make them look extra sweet, while matte keeps them subtle.

I am sealing the top and the edges only now.

Apply a small dot of E6000 glue to the back of each cupcake. Press the earring post into the glue and hold for a few seconds and let it cure for some seconds.

Add an extra coat of sealing to the back side too, to make it shine and extra secure.
