By following the instructions below, you will make one earring. Repeat all instructions to make the second earring.
  1. Please watch the video: How to Make the Wreath Necklace and Earring Set. In this video, you will see how to wire wrap the crystal wreath, attach the chain and beaded accents, and create the matching earring.
  2. As a variation to what you saw in the video, you will wrap your wire through and around the center of your briolettes, and continue your wire a second time around each stone to achieve the appearance of wire on both sides of all five beads.
  3. Finish off your wire as shown in the video.
