Learn How To Make Simple Earrings. Creating Beautiful Earrings Can Be Easy!

Soooo, these earrings were made in a live video on Facebook BUT the video disappeared. Can you believe that? I imagine that they were just too beautiful for Facebook and I broke Facebook with them! 

Regardless, I'll go over the basics for making these fun, light and perfect for Summer earrings. I used a Soft Flex Trios in Egg Hunt (but you could use any Trio), 2x2mm crimp tubes and Magical Crimpers to make the loops. The smaller loops are about 7mm in size. The larger loops are about 12mm in size. I simply strung the wire through a 2x2mm crimp tube and then created a loop and passed wire back through again. Then, crimp using Magical Crimpers. Make all of your big loops first - 8 purple and 10 turquoise. Gather together the bigger loops with the third color of wire (Chrysoprase in my design) and crimp them together to create a chain. Attach the wire loops at the top to an ear wire!

In the live video (that disappeared), I also made the ear wires using Soft Flex Craft Wire. Our craft wire is hypo-allergenic and non-tarnishing so it is very wearable as an earring. If you make them on the WigJig, you can make them over and over and over again and get the same shape.
