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.

To make these earrings, you will be making a series dangles with simple wire loops.

Start by placing 1 large Olive bead, 1 bicone, 1 small Olive bead, and one bicone onto a ball head pin. Create a simple wire loop after the last bead. Trim excess wire. Make a total of 5 of these.
On one of the dangles you just created, open the loop (the same way you would open a jump ring) and connect it to one of the loops on the base of your TierraCast cathedral link. Close the loop. Repeat with your other 4 dangles and the other loops on the link.
Open the loop at the base of your earring hook and connect it to the top loop on the cathedral link. Close it back up.
Repeat the previous 3 steps to make your other earring. Enjoy!
