By following the instructions below, you will make one earring. Repeat all instructions to make the second earring.
  1. Take one silver plated eye pin and slide on an Austrian crystal skull bead. Create a wrapped wire loop using your round nose pliers. Snip off any excess wire using your flush cutters.
  2. Open a silver plated earring hook (how you would a jump ring) and slide it onto the wrapped wire loop at the top of your Austrian crystal skull bead. Close the earring hook.
  3. Next, open a silver plated jump ring with your chain nose pliers and slide it onto the eye pin loop at the bottom of your skull bead. Before closing, also slide on the hole from your Austrian crystal spike pendant. Close the jump ring.
  4. You're done!
