By following the instructions below, you will make one earring. Repeat all instructions to make the second earring.
- Begin by opening a gold plated jump ring with your chain nose pliers and slide on one of the holes from a gold plated TierraCast round connector. Before closing your jump ring, also slide on a turquoise teardrop bead and close.
- Repeat this process 3 more times. You should have 4 connector beads with 4 turquoise beads dangling off of them using jump rings when you're done.
- Next, slide the following onto your gold plated hoop earring: 1 turquoise tear drop bead, 1 gold plated TierraCast connector (slide on through the second free hole), 1 turquoise tear drop bead, 1 gold connector, 1 Beadelle pave bead, 1 gold connector, 1 turquoise tear drop bead, 1 gold connector and 1 turquoise tear drop bead.
- Once all your beads are on, use your chain nose pliers to bend the 1/16" - 1/8" tip of the straight wire end of the earring hoop upwards. You can see how to do so in the video here.
- You're done!
