By following the instructions below you will make one earring. Repeat all instructions to make the second earring.
  1. Take 1 pink tassel off of the strand. Open and attach a jump ring through the loop of thread at the top of the tassel. Close the jump ring.
  2. Take 1 gold eye pin and open the loop at the bottom the same way you would open a jump ring. Slide on the jump ring with the tassel from the previous step. Close the loop of the eye pin.
  3. String 1 5mm round gold bead onto the eye pin. Then string 1 orange pom pom through the center. String another 5mm gold bead. Make a simple wire loop, and cut off the extra wire with flush cutters.
  4. Open 1 earring hook and slide on the wire loop from the previous step. Close the earring hook. Enjoy your earrings!
