20 DIY Rainbow Earrings You Can Make At Home

August 30, 2021 by Shellie Wilson

Rainbows have a way of making jewelry feel instantly happier. They are bright, playful, full of personality, and perfect for makers who love colorful accessories that do not take themselves too seriously. Whether you are drawn to soft boho rainbows, bold statement earrings, tiny beaded arches, or cheerful polymer clay designs, there is something about rainbow jewelry that just feels fun to wear.

This roundup of DIY rainbow earrings you can make at home is packed with creative ideas for crafters who want to play with color and try a range of different techniques. Some of these earrings lean sweet and whimsical, some have that trendy handmade boho vibe, and others are perfect if you love bold novelty accessories. It is also the kind of list that proves one simple shape can be reimagined in all sorts of crafty ways.

If you have been looking for easy rainbow earring ideas, this is a great place to start. There are tutorials using polymer clay, seed beads, crochet, macramé, Perler beads, and mixed materials, which means you do not have to stick to one style or skill level. You can go minimal and modern, bright and playful, or textured and handmade depending on what suits your jewelry style best.

Why Rainbow Earrings Are So Popular

Rainbow earrings have stayed popular because they work across so many styles. They can feel bohemian, cute, retro, artsy, or meaningful depending on the colors and materials you choose. They are also a lovely way to use up small leftovers from your craft stash, especially if you have odd bits of embroidery thread, beads, clay, or yarn hanging around waiting for a project.

The rainbow flag is a symbol of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender (LGBT) and queer pride, and LGBT social movements. Also known as the gay pride flag or LGBT pride flag, the colors reflect the diversity of the LGBT community and the “spectrum” of human sexuality and gender. (source)

Of course, a rainbow can also just be a rainbow.

The Macrame style earrings or rainbows are very popular right now as they have the perfect Boho feel to them. You can make your rainbows in whatever color shades you like to suit your outfit.
