I would like to share with your the recipe of making this pair of earrings.
You need to use only simple materials.
2 ear wires
4 4mm round or bicone beads
8 small seed beads
4 head pins
Tools Needed:
Round nose pliers to make loops!
1. Thread in 1 seed bead, 1 bicone/ round bead and 1 seed bead into the headpin.
2. Place them towards the head of the pin.
3. At the other end of the headpin, use your flat nose pliers and bend the head pin approximately 0.5cm from the end to 90 degree. If you are making a bigger loop, you should then bend close to 1cm of the wires.
Place the round nose pliers at the tip of the head pin. Depending of the size of the loop you are making, you should place the headpin at the right place of the round nose pliers as the diameter of the round nose pliers will determine the diameter of your earring loops.
Twist the wires inwards (towards you) by twisting your wrist.
Make a full loop.
Currently, the loop looks like a P shape.
Now, take out the pliers and place it inside the loop as per picture below. Twist the loop backward so that you form a nice circle. Close the loop fully.
If you are making a pair of earrings, you should make 3 more of this
Now, to hang one of them into the ear wires, reopen the loop and hang it onto the loop of the ear wires.
Close the loop using your pliers.
Hang the second headpin.
Close the loop fully using your pliers.
You have completed making this wonderful earring.
Make the other side and you are done.
