Tassel earrings are new trends loved by many of them. But do you know for what these tassels used before? A tassel is a finishing feature in fabric and clothing decoration. It is a universal ornament that is seen in varying versions in many cultures around the globe. A basic key tassel is made by binding or otherwise gathering threads from cord protrudes on one end, where the tassel is hung. This may have loose, dangling threads at the other end. Tassels are normally decorative elements, and as such one often finds them attached, usually along the bottom hem, to garments, curtains, pasties covering the nipples of burlesque performers, or other hangings.

A tassel is primarily an ornament, and was at first the casual termination of a cord to prevent unraveling with a knot. The tassel was its primary expression, but it also included fringes, ornamental cords, galloons, pompons, rosettes, and gimps as other forms. Tassels, pompons and rosettes are point ornaments; the others are linear ornaments.

Take azure blue thread roll and a thick cardboard piece. Now wrap about 30 strands around the cardboard. Make a tie on one end and remove from the cardboard. Now fold and make a ring tie on the top. Repeat same process of making the other pair of tassel.

Now we have to set the earring. Take a eye pin and put it through the centre of tassel and add tassel cap or jummka cap on it, You can slightly apply fevicol for the better secure. Take stone chain piece of similar length with the tassel and now add this piece to the tassel by pasting them into the cap. Let them dry. To the top add the stone ring and pearl and make the loop with the remaining part of the eye pin.

Now for the stud, take the stud pin and paste small blue kundan. After it gets dried put the stud through the loop and secure it.

HERE we go.. its ready.
