Cheers! Just started to play with some extra wires and came up with these two, my big and small version of spiral earrings. I hope you like it, but this is not about me or my earrings.
Today, I’m going to share nice designs and good tips on making an earring with wire work techniques from JEWEL STREET DESIGNS and JUSTATISH DESIGNS.
First, let’s take a look at this one of a kind, Copper Vine Earring from by JEWEL STREET DESIGNS
This piece has been shaped into an “S” form with loops at both ends. The materials used to make the earrings are pliers, cutters and copper wire. You can also create your own different shape; maybe, it would be nice to use the first letter of your name. What do you think?

Now, here’s a cute earring design from Tish McDermott of JUSTATISH DESIGN.
Inspired by Beading Daily’s earring swap, in celebration of Denise Peck’s new book, 101 Wire Earrings, Tish was able to make this sterling wire earring. Using a Wig-Jig, she created a perfectly shaped loops embellished with white, yellow and red Swarovski.
Really looks very dainty, isn’t it?
