Repurpose Costume Jewelry Clip-on Earrings

My late-mother's birthday was Christmas Day. What better way to keep her in our Christmas than by incorporating her 1950's/60's/70's costume jewelry as mini-ornaments to add sparkle to our Christmas Tree. These are just a couple of her clip-on earrings that I used; they looked 'christmasy' to me.

    Thanks :D I'm considering doing a 'mini' tree (e.g. 3'-4') using nothing but costume jewelry on it, earrings/pins as 'ornaments', and use necklaces and bracelets as 'garland'... in fact I think I have the perfect large pin (rhinestones) to use for the 'tree topper'. I had been trying to figure out a way to make them into a 'bigger' ornament but I couldn't come up with anything, so just clipped them on 'as is'. LOL.
