But i dont know i dont wanna try it enless it really works! So what do you guys think i should do?

Answer 1

anything that is squisy will work, a small piece of sponge, the eraser from your pencil, a long piece of paper folded onto it several times - as long as it penetrates the earring backing, it'll hold the earring on long enough to get a replacement. It might be a little embarrasing at school tomorrow, but just go to a jewelry store asap and get replacements.

Be inventive. Even a cut up piece of cardboard will work, or a cut up plastic cup will work fine. The stronger the material, the better it will hold.

Answer 2

take the eraser off of the end of a pencil and use it like an earring back

Answer 3

You can buy replacements for the backs of earring in little pouches at Claires.

Answer 4

Michaels has bags of them 100 or more for about5-6 dollars or less. I keep plenty in my jewel case all the time.

Answer 5

use small pieces of eraser as backings until u can get some new ones.

Answer 6

try putting a filter to a cigarrette. haha no, i just saw one and it poped into my head. umm...you could try a piece of foam or something easy for it to go through.
