Instructions

Note: Components and tools listed within this INSTRUCTIONS box and the printer-friendly PDF, if available, may have been discontinued since this project was published. Refer to the PURCHASE COMPONENTS and TOOLS AND OTHER SUPPLIES sections for current availability.

You can use round nose pliers or wire looping pliers to make your simple wire loops for this project.

Place the following beads onto an eye pin: 3mm bicone, 3mm pearl, 4mm round bead, 4mm pearl, 4mm round bead, dragonfly wings, 3mm pearl. After the last bead, create a simple wire loop. Trim off any excess wire.
Open a jump ring and link onto it the 16mm pear-shaped pendant. Also link onto the jump ring the loop at the base of your dragonfly wing/bead segment. Close the jump ring.
Open the loop at the base of your earring hook, the same way you would open a jump ring, and link the top loop of the dragonfly wing/bead segment onto it. Close the loop back up.
Repeat steps 1 - 3 to make your matching earring. Enjoy!
