PROJECT E873
Designer: Julie Bean
Skill Level: Beginner
These precious kitty cat earrings feature made in the USA lead-free pewter cat charms by TierraCast paired with sparkling Austrian crystal channel connector links. The result is a lovely little earring to keep for yourself or to give to the cat lover in your life.
Reboot: We have substituted a vibrant amethyst crystal link for the light amethyst link pictured.

By following the instructions below, you will make one earring. Repeat all instructions to make the second earring.
  1. Start by separating out two crystal links by cutting the jump ring connecting them. Do not cut the loop on the crystal links themselves.
  2. Open the loop at the base of your earring hook and slip onto it one of the crystal links that you had separated out. Close the loop.
  3. On the other side of the crystal link, attach a jump ring as well as one cat charm. Close the jump ring.
  4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 to make your matching earring. All done, enjoy!
