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.

These beads are a little bit fragile, so I don't recommend creating a wrapped wire loop on them. Please remember to double these instructions to create your matched pair of earrings.

Place a sapphire Czech crystal drop pave bead onto a sterling silver 2", 22 gauge head pin and create a simple wire loop after the bead.
Using your flush cutters, clip the head off of another head pin. Create a simple wire loop at the end of the head pin. Then slide a sapphire rainbow Czech crystal round pave bead onto the pin and create another simple loop after the bead.
Open one of the loops on the round bead and attach it to the loop on the drop.
Open the loop on a sterling silver French wire earring hook and hang the free loop on the round bead from it; close the loop.
Enjoy your sparkly new earrings!
