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.

Remember to double these instructions to make your matched pair of earrings.
  1. Begin by placing onto a 2" silver plated head pin: 1 Austrian Crystal 6mm rondelle in denim blue, 1 fine silver pewter plated "raja" bead pendant cap (facing upwards), 1 Austrian Crystal 10mm stairway (square) bead in denim blue, another "raja" bead pendant cap (facing downwards), and another denim blue rondelle. After the last bead, create a simple wire loop and cut off excess wire with flush cutters.
  2. Snip off the head of your head pin. At the end, create a simple wire loop. Place onto the wire 1 fine silver pewter plated "raja" bead pendant cap (facing upwards), 1 Austrian Crystal 10mm stairway (square) bead in denim blue, and another "raja" bead pendant cap (facing downwards). After the last pendant cap, create a simple wire loop and cut off excess wire with flush cutters.
  3. Open the simple wire loop that you just created in the last step and attach it to the simple wire loop of the dangle you created in the first step. Close the simple wire loop back up.
  4. Again, snip off the head of a head pin and create a simple wire loop. Onto the wire place a 7mm fine silver plated pewter round casbah bead. Create another simple wire loop right after this bead and cut off excess wire with flush cutters.
  5. Open the simple wire loop you just created and attach it to the simple wire loop at the top of your dangle. Close it back up. Now open the simple wire loop on the other side of the bead and attach it to an earring hook. Close it back up.
  6. All done! Enjoy your new earrings.
