Instructions

Step 1: Cut the wire into two 3" pieces and two 4" pieces.

Step 2: Use one 3" wire and one 4" wire to string one 2x2mm crimp tube and 1 ear wire. Pass back through the tube, but do not crimp. Adjust the wires so that the ends of the wires all fall in a different spot. Crimp the crimp tube. Click here for crimping instructions.

Step 3: Use 1 end of the wire to string 1 pearl and one 1x1mm crimp tube. Place the crimp tube at the very end of the wire and crimp. Repeat entire step three times so that there is 1 pearl on each wire end.

Step 4: Repeat Steps 2 and 3 to make a second earring.
