These double cute double heart dangly earrings can be made with a wide variety of materials and in the color(s) of your choice. My favorite materials for these are 1/8″ or 1/4″ plywood.
REMINDER: TEST, MASK (if needed) & DON’T FORGET TO VENT & SET FOCUS HEIGHT
Let’s Make These Earrings!
- Download the free design.
- Place your material into the machine. (If masking, apply masking first.)
- Upload the design to the Glowforge dashboard. Move the design to the location where you want to cut the board.
- Set your material to the appropriate setting.

Materials and Supplies Needed:
- 1/4″ or 1/8″ plywood of your choice (I used two-sided Columbia Forest Products plywood from Home Depot)
- masking (optional)
- paint, dye or stain (optional)
- a microfiber cloth or baby wipes
- isopropyl alcohol
- a sealant of your choice (optional, for this project, I used clear spray)
- earring wire hooks (2)
- jump rings (4)
- jewelry pliers
- optional: sandpaper (about 400 grit)
Tools:
- Glowforge, laptop
- very small paintbrush
- weeding tool
- In the left bar, set the outline of the earrings to “Cut.”
- Then set the markings to “Score.”
- Double check to make sure that your design is not grayed out, which would indicate it is out of print area and needs to be moved.
- Press “Print.”
- Press the flashing Glowforge button! 🙂
- Let the laser do it’s magic. 😀
- Remove the earrings from the Glowforge.
- Peel off the masking, if used. Clean earrings with isopropyl alcohol and a microfiber cloth or baby wipes. If needed, lightly sand with about 400 grit sandpaper.
- Using your paintbrush or acrylic paint pen or whatever colorant you’ve decided to use, color as desired.
- Let dry.
- If you are sealing the earrings, seal and let dry fully before moving on to next step.
- Using jewelry pliers, attach two jump rings to each earring and then attach the earring wire hooks.
