Retired - Blue Jellyfish Earrings

PROJECT E106
Designer: Andrea Morici
Skill Level: Beginner
These delicate beauties are our version of the gorgeous, yet deadly, bottle blue Portuguese Man of War Jellyfish. Much prettier (and less dangerous) to wear on your ears than the real thing!

  1. Thread six (3 per earring) of the Austrian crystal sapphire crystal beads on to six head pins. Create a simple loop at the end of each.
  2. On an eyepin, thread a sapphire crystal followed by a lampwork bead, followed by another crystal. Create a simple loop at the end. Make two of these, one for each earring.
  3. Cut six (3 per earring) pieces of chain at three different lengths. We cut ours at 1 _", 1 _", and 1". You may cut yours longer or shorter based on how long you would like the finished product.
  4. Using the proper method for opening a jump ring add single sapphire crystal looped headpin to one end of each chain segment.
  5. Add all three of the chain segments to a single jump ring and add that jump ring to one end of the lampwork segment. Repeat for other earring.
  6. Open the other end of the lampwork segment and add to the shepherd's crook earring hook. Close loop. Repeat for other earring.
