These earrings have wonderful movement to them with all their dangles!
- Begin by placing 1 bicone onto the long wire part of the earring hook. Create a simple wire loop after the bead and trim off excess wire.
- Onto an eye pin, place 3 bicones and then create a simple wire loop after the last one. Trim off excess wire.
- Look at your lotus connector and position it so that the wider part with all the petals is facing down. Onto one of the large side petals, open and connect a jump ring to it as well as one of the loops on your jasmine flower link. Close the jump ring. One the other end of that same jasmine connector, attach another jump ring as well as your PRESTIGE Round Classic Cut pendant. Close the jump ring. Repeat on the other side of the lotus flower connector so that you now have two dangles on your soon-to-be earring.
- Onto the middle petal of the lotus flower connector, attach your 3-bicone eye pin segment that you made in a previous step. You can attach it by opening the loop the same way that you would open a jump ring.
- On the other side of the 3-bicone eye pin segment, attach a PRESTIGE Round Classic Cut pendant using a jump ring.
- At the top of the lotus flower connector, attach your earring hook by opening and closing the loop at its base.
- Repeat all steps to make the other earring.
