By following the instructions below, you will make one earring. Repeat all instructions to make the second earring.
- Please watch our video: How to Bead Weave Circular Brick Stitch Around a Ring. Based on what you learned in the video, you will tie on your thread and weave one row of 11 pink seed beads along one side and tie off your thread. You will then repeat for the teal line. I recommend tying off each side to eliminate a thread bridge across the top. If you'd like to not tie off it will still work the same, just with the extra thread bridge.
- Open the loop of the earring hook, same as you would a jump ring, and attach it to the corner between the pink and teal lines of brick stitch.
By purchasing the full lots of the items listed you will be able to make two pairs of earrings!
