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. You will also need a scrap of wire or a toothpick for this project.
  1. Begin by adding a dab of E6000 to the well of the bezel pendant, place the rose teardrop stone into the bezel. Add a dab of E6000 to the well of the bezel link, place the mint rivoli into the bezel. Set these aside to dry.
  2. Open one jump ring and attach it to the top loop of the pendant and the bottom loop of the link. Close the jump ring.
  3. Open the loop of the lever earring hook. The small loop will open like a jump ring. Attach the top loop of the bezel link. Close the loop.
We recommend waiting at least 24 hours before wearing to allow the glue to fully set.
