Romance Defined Earrings

Project E608
Designer: Julie Bean

The movement of these earrings makes one think of dancing, while the sparkle of the silver and crystal conjures images of the sun's rays flashing brilliantly along a water's surface on a sunny day.

Instructions:

  1. Remember to double these directions to make your matched pair of earrings!

  2. Thread onto a ball head pin: 1 Swarovski 4mm crystal bicone, 1 silver plated bead cap with the "petals" facing the direction of the bicone, 1Swarovski 6mm crystal spacer. Create a simple wire loop after your beads and cut off excess wire using flush cutters.

  3. Cut a 3 inch length of 24 gauge silver plated artistic wire. Create a wrapped wire loop at one end and thread onto the wire: 1 pearl, 1 silver plated bead cap with the petals facing the pearl, 1 Swarovski 4mm crystal bicone. Create a wrapped wire loop at the top and cut off excess wire.

  4. Cut a 2 inch length of wire. Create a simple wire loop at one end and thread onto the wire: 1 Swarovski 4mm crystal bicone, 1 silver plated bead cap with the "petals" facing the direction of the bicone, 1Swarovski 6mm crystal spacer. Create a simple wire loop at the top.

  5. We are now going to assemble your earring. Take the first section you made using the ball head pin and open the simple wire loop at the top the same way you would open a jump ring and connect it to the wrapped wire loop at the bottom of the pearl. Close the loop.

  6. Now open the simple wire loop beneath the bicone in the beaded segment from step 4 and connect it to the wrapped wire loop on top of the pearl segment. Close the loop.

  7. At this point you have one long dangle earring strand consisting of three connected segments and an earring hook. On the end of your dangle that has the simple wire loop, open that loop and attach it to the hoop at the base of your leverback earrings. Close the loop.

  8. Congratulations, enjoy your lovely new earrings!

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.
