These layered earrings are as pretty as a blooming garden in spring. Lovely enameled free-formed flower shapes have been nested together to create depth and intrigue in this romantic design.

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.

Place onto a 2mm ball head pin: 1 mint green 17mm C-Koop free form flower (with the petals facing up), 1 rose 12.5mm C-Koop free form flower (petals facing up), and 1 Austrian crystal crystal round 8mm faux pear in ivory. Create a wrapped wire loop after the bead.
Open the swirl part of your sterling silver shepherd's crook earring finding (the same way you would open a jump ring) and slide the dangle you made in the previous step onto the hook. Put the swirl back in place.
Enjoy!
