Steps
Step 1. Choose your beads and get some earring hooks, head pins, rounded pliers and needle nose pliers
You will need all these tools. Check the photo for more details.
Step 2. Match the beads the way you like, inserting the one that will go to the end of the pendant first and then the others
Step 3. With pliers, bend the excess part of the pin at 90 ° for both earrings
Step 4. With the needle nose pliers, cut the pin so that it is 1 cm long
You can alternatively try the technique described below.
Step 5. Take the earring hook and with pliers fold the pin into a circle
As you can see from the photo, the pin is not bent to form a full circle.
Step 6. Insert the hook into the half circle formed with the pin and then fold the pin completely so that it cannot come out of the hook
Step 7. Put the earrings in the pierced earlobe (obviously to wear these earrings you must have the hole in the ears) and show them to everyone
Step 8. Finished
Method 1 of 1: Ring technique
Step 1. Follow the instructions from steps 1 to 3, but skip step 4 and don't cut the pin yet
Step 2. Fold the head of the pin and roll it up several times, where it protrudes from the beads
Cut off the excess and then turn it around so that it forms a tightly closed loop.
Step 3. Open a small ring (one of those unclosed rings) and insert the earring hook
Close the ring well.
Step 4. When you open a ring, do not try to separate the two parts, because you weaken the ring
Open it perpendicular to the plane of the ring and then bring the two parts back to the same plane to close it.
Advice
For a more refined look, replace the silver bead at the base of the hook spiral with a matching bead
Warnings
- Drop earrings easily fit into clothes and hair. Be careful when wearing them, because by getting stuck in a shirt, they can cause tears in the earlobe.
- Keep the earrings away from children and pets who may swallow them.
