Hello!
Today was generally great and in celebration of all things great, I am going to give out some trade secrets. (Ok, they're not really secrets, seeing as most jewelry makers could do it.) Read on and learn, my young padawans.
How to Make a Simple Set of Dangle Earrings
Things you'll need:
Round nose jewelry pliers
Jewelry wire-cutters
2 ball and hook earwires
2 head pins
Selection of beads
1. Slide the beads on the head pin in the order of your choosing and cut the pin about 3/8 of an inch from the top of the last bead; make a small, secure loop with the end of the pin using the round nose jewelry pliers. Repeat with other head pin and beads.
2. Open the hook part of the earwire, so it's not touching the part that slides into your ear, and push the loop from the head pin onto the ball; reclose the hook. Repeat with other earwire. See photo.
3. TADA! Your earrings are complete! Now go enjoy some cheesecake.
Remember! Raffle is still on!
Thanks for reading!
