blue daisy bead tassel earrings
Step 1 |
First, make a bead link with a ceramic daisy bead. To do this, slide a bead onto an eye pin. Bend the wire of the eye pin in a 90° angle just above the bead. Grasp the eye pin wire, about 3/8"-½" [0.3 cm - 1.3 cm] from the bend, between the jaws of your round nose pliers. |
Step 2 |
Now, rotate the pliers toward you, keeping a firm grip on the wire, until a small loop is formed. Before you close the loop completely, add the jump ring at the top of a tassel then close. Trim excess wire. |
Step 3 |
Remove the jump rings from a hammered connector shape. Discard or save for a future project. |
Step 4 |
Carefully open the loop at the top of your bead link, slide onto a hole on one end of the hammered connector shape, then close the loop. |
Step 5 |
Add a fishhook earring to the hole on the other side of the hammered connector shape as you did in Step 4. |
Step 6 |
Repeat Steps 1-5 for a second earring. |
