Spring is here, and you want to change your wardrobe and maybe, make new jewelry. Why not to make a new pair of crystal earrings? It's fun and easy!
To make a pair of earrings like mine, you will need:
  • 6mm Swarovski bicone crystals - 6
  • 2.5mm metal beads - 6 
  • 2" headpins - 2
  • Earwires -1 pair
  • Chain nose pliers, round nos pliers, wire cutters
1. Slide crystals and metal beads into a headpin as shown.

2. Hold the chain nose pliers above the last bead and make a 45degree angle.
3. Using round nose pliers, make a simple loop.

4. Attach  your favorite ear wire to the loop. Make another earring

Here, you can watch a video how to make these earrings:
