Blue Roses Instructions

This earring design is a great way to use decorative links to make simple and impressive earrings.

Step one: Make the bottom dangles of the earrings by stringing a 4mm daisy spacer, 6mm aquamarine fire polished glass bead and another daisy spacer on a head pin. Finish with a simple loop. For detailed instructions on how to make a simple loop, please visit the Handy Tips section of the Learning Center.

Step two: Attach one side of the link to the loop of the dangle and the other to 2 connected jump rings. Attach the top jump ring to the loop of the earring. For extra security, add a clear rubber earwire clutch to the back of the earring. Two simple steps to a beautiful earring set!
