One of the popular trends in eye wear these days are known as the clip on flip up sunglasses because these things can actually replace actual sunglasses with the same quality. Now one many do not know is that it is actually possible to make this kind of accessory instead of going out to a store and buying one. Now if one is interested in trying to create one of these things, then try following some of these steps.
The first step would be to get hold of an old pair of sunglasses and use a small screwdriver to take the arms of the glasses out. When one does this, then all that will be left would be a pair of lenses of the sunglasses. Take note that the pair of glasses right now is very delicate and may break if not handled well.
After that, find a hard paper clip that does not move easily when bended. The reason why one must find a hard paper clip wire is so that it will be steady enough to support itself when attached to the eyeglasses. So now when one finds such a wire, he has to make it straight using some pliers.
After making the wire straight, take a pair of scissors and cut the wire in the middle until it becomes two. From there, one must now place one wire into the hole at the sides of the glasses. After that, he should take the other piece of wire and do the exact same thing.
After the wires have been slotted in, then the next thing that one should do would be to actually tie the wires to the holes. The thing about this is that it is very hard to tie the wires by hand because these things are really tough. So in order to make a tight knot, one should use pliers to be able to tie the wire so that it will not be loose later on.
The next thing to do would be to take the two ends of the wiring and try to tie them together in the middle. Take note that the wire has to be attached to the frame of the glasses so that it cannot be seen. When the two ends have been brought to the middle, then try to tie them together.
Finally, curve the top a little bit so that there is a small clip like part. This part will be the one that will latch itself on to the glasses in order for it to be attached there. When all of the steps have been made, try wearing it on front of a mirror and see how it looks.
So as one can see, it is actually very easy to make a pair of clip on flip up sunglasses. The great thing about this device is that it is very practical because it is easier to use than a normal pair of sunglasses. It is also much cheaper to make one at home because the ones outside are very expensive.
