Seed-Pod Earrings
To match the necklace, make long, green earrings of the plantain seed-pods. [Fig. 114] shows a seed-pod earring. You see it is strung on a thread and the ends of the thread are then tied to form a loop. The loop must be just large enough to fit comfortably over your ear, and when you wear the earring, the green jewel will hang down and dangle delightfully. The upper end of the seed-pod should almost touch your ear.
