By following the instructions below, you will make one earring. Repeat all instructions to make the second earring.
- Open the jump rings to separate four links of gold plated crystal channel chain, leaving a jump ring on each end.
- Place a gold plated 1.5", 22 gauge head pin through an 11mm rose gold teardrop faux pearl and create a wrapped wire loop after the bead.
- Open the jump ring on one end of the chain and hang the pearl drop from it; close the ring.
- Use a gold plated 4mm, 21 gauge jump ring to hang the other end of the chain from the loop on a gold plated ball post earring. Make sure you have the included jump ring on the chain and a second jump ring here so that the channel chain hangs properly.
- Place a gold plated earring back onto the earring post.
