By following the instructions below, you will make one earring. Repeat all instructions to make the second earring.
- Please begin by watching the video: How to Use a TierraCast Beadable Wrapped Wire Hoop to Make an Earring.
- The above video demonstrates how to open and close the beadable hoop and how to add o beads to it. For this project, open the hoop and add 8 peridot o beads, 5 red o beads, 1 hamsa hand charm, 5 red o beads, and 8 peridot o beads. Close the hoop.
- Take your unfinished earring hook and place onto it 1 red 4mm bead and 1 peridot o bead. Finish your hook by creating a simple wire loop at the base. You want the loop at the base to be facing forward so that when your beadable hoop is linked to it, it will be facing straight.
- Once you have finished your earring hook, open the loop at the base and link onto it your beadable hoop. Close the loop.
- Enjoy!
