Got a minute? Then you can make these earrings!

I fell in love with this strand of frosted glass beads and decided to let them be the stars in this design.

Seriously, it will probably take you longer to assemble your materials that it will to put these together.  It doesn’t get much easier.

The teardrop shaped beads are what give these earrings interest.  I love that the three different colors of beads all came on one strand.

Materials:

  • two ear wires
  • two decorative head pins
  • 12 top-drilled teardrop-shaped beads
  • chain nose pliers
  • round nose pliers
  • wire cutters

Instructions:

  1. Thread six teardrop beads onto a head pin. Push narrow ends of beads close together so they nest. Use chain nose and round nose pliers to make a loop at top of head pin. Cut off excess head pin with wire cutters.
  2. Open hanging loop of ear wires and attach beaded dangle. Repeat to make second earring.

Happy Beading!
