1. Begin by setting the stone into the setting. You can do this by using a popsicle stick or the side of a nylon jaw pliers. Please watch our video here to see this easy technique. Once your stone is in the setting, set it aside.
2. Using your flush cutters, cut off 8 inches of beading wire.
3. On to this beading wire string one 8mm crystal and slide this down to the center of the wire.
4. Then, on one side of the wire string on one gold bead, one 6mm crystal, one gold bead, one 6mm crystal, one gold bead, and one 4mm crystal. The repeat this on the other side of the wire.
5. Next string each end of the wire through the two holes of the set stone.
6. Then on one side string one 4mm crystal, one gold bead, and one 4mm crystal. Repeat on the other strand.
7. Take both wires up through one gold bead and one 6mm crystal.
8. Onto both wires string on one crimp bead and one closed jump ring. Thread the wire back down through the crimp tube. Pull snug and adjust the wires to get them nice and even. Then using the crimpers, crimp the crimp tube. Use you flush cutters to trim any excess wire. Add a crimp cover.
9. Finally, open the loop of the earring hook, same as you would a jump ring and attach it to the jump ring. Close the loop and you're all done!
