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.

1. Remember to double the instructions to make a pair of earrings! First create the beaded drops by threading two Austrian crystals onto two fancy headpins. Create a simple loop and trim off excess wire. Set these aside.
2. Thread two sterling silver noodle beads onto two eyepins, followed by a 2mm sterling silver bead on each.
3. Create a simple loop at the end of each eyepin and trim off excess wire.
4. Open the loop on each Austrian crystal drop, thread them through the loops at the end of each noodle bead (the side without the 2mm bead) and close the loops once again.
5. Open the loops at the other end of the noodle beads, thread them through the loop on the earring hooks. Close the loops once again.
