My Inverted Heart Earrings

I really like the contrast of the dark red coral with the silver in these earrings and the way the bead cap mirrors the pattern in the findings. These earrings are just so fun and so pretty; I was amazed I could make a pair of Swarovski crystal and Bali earrings for such a great price!

Shanna Steele, Auntie's Beads Designer

Instructions:

1. On a headpin, pick up a 6mm round. Make a loop. Attach it to one of the outside loops on the earring finding. Wrap the wire and trim the excess.

2. On a headpin, pick up a bead cap and a helix bead. Make a loop. Wrap the wire and trim the excess.

3. On an eye pin, pick up a 4mm bicone. Make a loop. Attach it to the drop you made in step 2. Wrap the wire and trim the excess.

4. Open the loop on the eye pin. Attach the loop to the middle loop on the earring finding. Close the loop.

5. Repeat step 1.

6. Open a loop on an eye pin. Attach it to the loop at the top of the earring finding. Close the loop. Add a 4mm bicone to this eye pin. Make a loop. Wrap the wire and trim the excess.

7. Open the loop on an ear wire. Attach the loop to the earring you just created. Close the loop.
