This project would make a great gift idea!
- To make this earring, start by placing the bicone bead, followed by the round bead, onto a head pin.
- Create a wrapped wire loop after the round bead and trim off excess wire.
- Open the loop at the base of the earring hook, the same way you would open a jump ring, and slide on the wrapped wire loop from the previous step. Close the loop.
- Repeat the previous 3 steps to make your matched earring pair. Enjoy!
