Instructions:
- Cut two 1 1/2" long pieces of the 26 gauge gold wire. Wrap two blue chalcedony teardrop beads, making a loop at the top of each. Ensure that each bead-and-wire piece is the same hanging length.
- Connect a 9mm hammered ring to a 13mm hammered ring using one of the oval jump rings.
- Connect a briolette drop and the 20mm hammered ring to the 13mm ring using a 7mm jump ring.
- Gently open the bottom of one of the earring hooks just enough to slip in the 9mm hammered link, then gently glose the earring hook bottom again.
- Repeat Steps 2 thru 4 to make a second earring and you are done!
Design Tip: To keep the design from being too busy, I used a bead with a smooth surface to balance the highly visible texture of the rings.
Tip: Check package quantities for each component. You may have extra material to make more than one finished project, or will have leftovers for other projects. In some cases, adding on just one more package of a component may be all you need to make multiple pieces.
