By following the instructions below, you will make one earring. Repeat all instructions to make the second earring.
- Begin by using pliers to open the loop of an eye pin. Slide on the loop of your bat charm. Close the loop.
- Onto the eye pin, slide one glass heart bead. Above the bead, make a simple wire loop. Note: To ensure that your charm faces forward, wrap the top loop in the opposite direction as the bottom loop of the eye pin.
- Next, use pliers to open the loop on your earring post. Slide on the simple wire loop from the previous step. Close the loop of the earring post. All done!
