STEP THREE
String a bead of your choosing on the earwire.
Make a 90 degree bend in your earwire just below the bead. This bend can be in line with the wire or off to the side, depending on where you want your finished loop to face.
With your round nose pliers, make a simple loop with the tail of the wire.

You now have a completed earwire. Add charms, dangles, even chandelier components as you like!
Add a bead by creating another simple loop with a bead on a headpin and you have a simple, fun earring!
