It was quite a revelation to me when I learned that I could make my own ear wires, especially when I realized it takes under five minutes to make a pair. And that includes gathering all the materials.
I will admit these 6mm pearls look a little big for these ear wires, guess I’ll have to put some BIG earrings on them. 🙂 Probably 1 mm-4 mm beads would work best.
Keep in mind you could even make tiny coils (see my wire coiling video) and add those to make ear wires just like ones you purchase, only better cuz you made them yourself. 😀
Enjoy the video and happy creating!
You can watch the Friday Findings-How To Make Beaded Ear Wires over at YouTube.
Very interesting. It pays to have the right tools.
That’s half the fun, collecting all the cool tools. 😀
