I found these gorgeous beads at Michael’s last week and fell in love with them immediately, so I did what every crafty gal does – I made some earrings!
You can’t go wrong with these earrings. They are easy to make and you will love them.
Materials needed:
- 2 headpins
- 2 earring hooks
- 2 beads
- 2 hammered rings – mine came from links of a chain
- Wire cutters
- Round nose pliers
Step 1: Thread a bead onto your head pin and make a 90 degree bend just above your bead. Use wire cutters to cut the wire, leaving about 1/3 of an inch. Use your round nose pliers to create a loop.
Step 2: Use your pliers to gently open your earring hooks and the loop you just made. Make sure you open the loops side to side (here is a great tutorial if I’ve confused you).
Step 3: Attach your rings to each loop. Close each loop and admire you fabulous new earrings!!
Don’t you just love wearing new earrings? I can’t wait to wear them and I’m pretty sure they coordinate perfectly with all my summer outfits:)

For work I tend to wear the same pair, but I am now trying to get out of this habit and try new jewelry!
Nancy says
These earrings are so cute. I wear a different pair every day. Either I wear a pair that goes with all the other jewelry I have on or a pair that distinctly goes with my clothes. I love jewelry!
Dawn Woolf says
I don’t wear earrings that often but am getting back into them. (I feel so much more feminine and sexy 🙂 when I do) I don’t have many so I do wear the same ones for a while.
These are SOOOOO CUTE!!! I love the colors!
Thanks for the chance!
