More Earrings

I had some time today, so I made a few more pair of earrings. These were some beads I had hanging around, I don't really know what they are. I needed some ear wires so I made some based on this tutorial.



This is a simple set of 4, 6MM hematite beads.


These were hanging around, don't know what they are, but I really like these. I made these ear wires also. Once you get the hang of it, making ear wires is pretty simple.


A little different this time, two beads on opposite ends, lightly hammered to strengthen the curve, homemade ear wires.

ohh... I like the last set of earrings - the one with a bead on either end...here's a design option: twist the wire so it crosses over itself. Another: loops at the end of the head pin so you can add another bead for a more dangly, chandelier effect.

These are fun - they look like they'd have a fun, lively movement when worn. Also, nice job on the ear wires.
