This is the worst best idea on earth. Imagine a kid being attracted thinking this is THE bear from his collection and yanking them. NIGHTMARE 8} 8} 8}

Todlers do not mind what you have hanging from your earlobes. They'll pull it anyway.

I'm in the habit of clipping my pen (all metal) to my collar, when I do not have a breast pocket. Our one-year old pulls it off when she gets the chance. Put she also tries to put it back. One of these days she'll stab me in the jugular or something.

They are quite cute! :)

When I first saw this topic it gave me a surprise because I didn't know anyone else had made earrings using Playmobil! I suppose it was to be expected because I've quite often seen earrings with Lego people and parts.

My daughter (14) is very fond of kitsch fashion accessories. As jewellery-making is one of my hobbies, it inspired me to make these from some spare pieces I had...

I've seen playmobil necklaces but they were custom made...They are very popular with female students here in Thessaloniki!

I can just imagine how a charm bracelet would look using the teddy bears in different colours (yellow, orange, brown, blue, pink) or other small accessories! :D Pity I don't have a Dremel to drill the tiny holes.  :(

I've tried making stud earrings using Playmobil flowers (http://www.playmodb.org/cgi-bin/showpart.pl?partnum=30%2004%201930). The finished item looked great but the plastic didn't bond well to the metal blanks even though I used a jewellery adhesive (Hasulith). Will have to try again with E6000 glue as I think it's far stronger.

I think, I saw something like this a while ago in Klickywelt. Very nice.

Would be funny, to see the hole in teddy's ear. So it would be an ear to ear conector!  :lol: :lol:

Oh, wow! Very creative stuff! Thanks for the link, Markus! :D

My favourites are the shell stud earrings but the other stuff is simply adorable too. :love:

Baby's head and body parts on a bracelet...hmmm. Not too sure about that one, but it does show Tacksi has a great, if slightly warped, sense of humour.  :lol:

The teddy bear earrings are adorable! It would be really cool to make a charm bracelet out of them. I love making jewelry; why didn't I think of this!? All the ones at klickywelt were adorable, too. I loved the cat and fishbones set,  :lol: and the one with the flowers. That one would be very easy.

I'll agree with Sylvia!!! Very creative jewelery!! But the baby on is creepy... Instead I would prefer a necklace with the whole baby..

Another area for Playmobil licensing commercial producers maybe.

I'm in the process of having a jeweller colleague who attends our craft and produce market make me a small klicky to hang on a chain. 
It will be made of silver and is of one of my favourite klickies!  It will probably take a month or so, but I'll show it off when I get it!  :)
