By following the instructions below, you will make one earring. Repeat all instructions to make the second earring.
- Begin by using flush cutters to cut 1.5 inches of 24 gauge wire. Onto one end of the wire, make a simple wire loop.
- Slide on one 4mm stainless steel bead, then make another simple wire loop on the other side of the bead.
- Repeat steps 1 and 2, this time using two inches of wire and a 6mm stainless steel bead. Note: make sure that one of your loops is at least 6mm in diameter to accamodate the Swarovski Crystal ring that you will be attaching in step 5.
- Use pliers to open a loop on one side of your 4mm bead the same way you would open a jump ring, and slide on the smaller loop of your 6mm wrapped bead. Close the loop.
- Next, open the larger loop of your 6mm wrapped bead, and slide on the Swarovski Crystal Ring. Close the loop.
- To attach your earring hook: Open the loop on your earring hook the same way you would open a jump ring, and slide on the opposite loop of your 4mm bead. Close the loop.
- Enjoy!
