How to make trendy DIY Hoop Tassel Earrings. Fun DIY tassels added to hoop earrings. They would make great gifts too! For more fun earring projects see my Jewelry DIY page.
Hey, guys, I am back with yet another trendy Tassel DIY! This time I am making Hoop Tassel Earrings! There are similar ones I found on the Anthro site and I knew they would be super simple to recreate.
I found some great gold earring hoop findings that you just add a hook too, so all I had to do was add a tassel, assemble and wear. Check out how easy these tassel hoop earrings are to make.
How to make DIY Hoop Tassel Earrings
Supplies:
- Hoop earring findings
- Earring hooks
- Embroidery floss: white (14m), navy blue (8 m), cotton cording
- Hot glue & gun
- Jump rings: oval shaped
- Jewelry making pliers
- Sharp scissors
Instructions:
These are super simple to make, so let’s get started!
Feed the embroidery floss through an oval shaped jump ring.
Fold it in half. Tie a short piece of floss in a knot around the folded floss.
Wrap the floss ends around tassel and hot glue them down.
Add an oval jump ring over the floss ends.
Trim the ends of the floss. Use a hair comb to separate the strands and the smooth out the ends of the tassel. Trim again if needed.
Attach the jump ring to the earring hoop. Then attach the hoop to a hook and repeat to make two earrings and that’s it! So fun and trendy to wear!
Is the off-white color tassel made with the “cotton cording” you have on supply list? What is that? What size or where would I find this? Thanks- so cute!!
The off-white tassel is made with natural cotton cording. You unwrap it and use it like the embroidery thread.
What size are the hoops you use?
I used 40mm hoops. Click the link in the supply list and it shows you the size. I bought mine in a set of 3 sizes at Walmart.
How big are he oval jump rings that you used?
Hi Charlotte,
There is a link to them on Amazon in my supply list. They are 8mm.

Would it be possible to show a pic of the white embroidery thread while still on the spool so that I’ll know what I’m looking for in the store? Thanks so much!
Hi Tara,
Since there is so much interest in the white tassel earring added an image of the 14m embroidery floss to my supply list. I hope this helps.
Kim
Hi! I love them! Just a question, the white tread seems diffrent, more shiny, its some diffrent ype of embroidery floss?
Hi Helena,
The blue earrings are made with standard 8m embroidery thread. The white ones are made with the larger spiral 14m kind. So they are fuller. I hope this helps I will update the post.

How many did you use for a colored set? It looks like one whole thread for one tassel. Or did you use one for two?
Hi Andrea,
I used one skein of floss for each earring. So for one pair, you would need two skeins of floss.
Kim
I just LOVE these! Can’t wait to make them & other uses for the tassels.
I love these earrings! How would I make them if I wanted to blend two colors together?
Hi Nancy, I would look for embroidery floss in the two colors you want that are already a mixed or mix them your self. Buy the two colors, lay one edge of the floss over the other and use a comb to blend the two. I hope this helps.
