Retired - Heat of the Day Earrings

These sunny gold hoop earrings will have you begging for a hot summer day at the beach. And I just love the way these bright orange seed beads add an element of fun to this design.
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.

By following the instructions below, you will make one earring. Repeat all instructions to make the second earring.
  1. On to one earring hoop thread six 6/0 orange mix seed beads in random color order. Thread them onto the side of the earring hoop without the flattened hole.
  2. Then thread on the charm loop of one Radiant Sun Charm.
  3. Now thread on six 6/0 orange mix seed beads in random color order.
  4. Take your chain nose pliers and bend the tip (approximately 1/8 inch) of the end of the earring hoop up to a 90 degree angle. This will create the connector for the earring hoop so that this tip of wire will fit inside the other side with the flattened hole and be secure while wearing. Please reference the photo for more detail.
