4 DIY Beaded Earring Design Ideas for Valentine’s Day
Last week on Free Spirit Beading with Kristen Fagan, we got passionate about making beaded earrings. We explore combining different shapes and colors of beads and beading wire to create quick earrings. These DIY earring designs are perfect for celebrating your gal pals for Galentine's Day (February 13th) and sweethearts for Valentine's Day (february 14th)! You'll learn how to make dangle and hoop earrings with beads, flexible beading wire, crimps and ear wires.

I love this color palette! I'm not really a red or purple girl but, put them together and add in antique brass and you got me! I think that is one of my favorite things about color, the possibilities are endless. Putting this red with a pink together is going to feel totally different this red with purple together. I do love the color raspberry which is a mix of red & purple so, maybe that is why I am so drawn to this color combo! Talk with all of you that purchase our Valentine Passion Design Kit (sold out) and bead mix (sold out) it appears you are smitten with this combination to.
We started with the hoop! I created two different beading wire color options just to show the slight change in design. Which Soft Flex beading wire color option is your favorite? Antique brass color on the left or purple on the right?!
These dangle earrings are so romantic! I adore those rose cage beads. Roses are a symbol of love and passion. The ancient Greeks and Romans associated roses with Aphrodite and Venus, the goddesses of love. Wouldn't you feel like a goddess wearing these?!
Oh, be still my heart! These dangle earrings have some drama with their length and two-tone metallic shine. That tone on tone red etched heart steals the show though! Isn't it darling.
Lastly, we created these gorgeous raspberry and red beaded tassel earrings with antique brass color wire, save the best for last perhaps? They are really fun and flirty! Perfect for celebrating the season of love and passion.
