Wire Chandelier Earrings

I decided to get a little creative on my own this time. I love how Pinterest may not directly inspire a project but helps to make the creativity inside flow!

Supplies

  • 16 gauge wire
  • 4 large beads
  • 2 small beads
  • 2 shaped or small beads
  • Earring backs
  • 6 2" head pins
  • 2 eye pins
  • Round nose pliers





First, take the 16 gauge wire and cut two pieces about three inches long. Starting in the center of one piece, use the round nose pliers to create a loop. Take the other side and create another loop underneath. Create a loop on each end too.



Take your head pins and insert them into two large beads and one small/shaped bead. Loop the ends of the head pins and connect them to the loops of the wired earring. I put one large bead on each end and the shaped bead in the middle on the bottom center loop. Take a eye pin and insert it into the small bead. Connect the bottom of the eye pin to the wired earring and the top to the earring back.




Now, you have cute chandelier earrings!
