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. Open the jump rings to separate four links of gold plated crystal channel chain, leaving a jump ring on each end.
  2. 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.
  3. Open the jump ring on one end of the chain and hang the pearl drop from it; close the ring.
  4. 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.
  5. Place a gold plated earring back onto the earring post.
