Instructions
By following the instructions below, you will make one earring. Repeat all instructions to make the second earring.
  1. If you are not familiar with how to use wire looping pliers, please watch the video here.
  2. Place onto a head pin 1 scalloped bead cap facing downwards. Measure 1/4" from the end of the head pin. At the 1/4" point, create a simple wire loop. Snip off excess wire with flush cutters. Repeat this step to create your second "leg" for your angel.
  3. Take an eye pin and open the loop (the same way you would open a jump ring) and slip onto it the two dangles (legs) you made in the step above. Close the eye pin loop.
  4. Place onto the eye pin: 1 SWAROVSKI ELEMENTS dome bead facing downwards, 1 angel wings bead, 1 SWAROVSKI ELEMENTS round bead, and 1 filigree bead cap facing upwards. Create a simple wire loop after the bead cap. Trim excess wire with flush cutters.
  5. Open the loop at the base of your earring hook (the same way you would open a jump ring) and link this onto the simple wire loop you just made. Close the loop back up.
  6. Happy Holidays!
