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 a jump ring and slip onto it one of your Austrian crystal palace green briolette beads. Also link this jump ring to one of the bottom loops on your antique brass filigree flower chandelier earring drop. Close the jump ring.
  2. Repeat the previous step with 2 more jump rings and 2 more briolette beads - connecting them to the other two bottom loops on your chandelier drop.
  3. Place a 6mm Austrian crystal round bead in palace green onto an eye pin. Create a simple wire loop after the bead but have it facing in the opposite direction as the loop on the other side.
  4. Open one of the simple loops from the previous step and connect this to the top loop on your chandelier earring drop. You can open simple loops the same way you open jump rings. Close the loop.
  5. Open the simple wire loop opposite the one you just connected and link this to the loop at the base of your ball stud post earring. Close the loop.
  6. Place an earring back on the earring post.
  7. Enjoy!
