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. Please begin this project by watching the video: How to Make Earrings with Gita Settings for Austrian crystals. The video will show you how to set your crystals into the Gita Jewelry settings using a popsicle stick. Although the prong settings for this particular pair of earrings are a little different then the one shown in the video, it will be the same basic technique.
  2. Using your fingers, pop the stone into the setting. Once it is in the setting, use your popsicle stick to curve the prongs gently over the top of the stone. Use the same principle as shown in the video where you fold over a prong and then do one on the other side of the setting and keep working on diagonal prongs so as to keep the stone in place and prevent slipping.
  3. Enjoy!
