What You're Saying:

"I love ordering through auntiesbeads.com! I live in a town where the closest thing to a bead store (hobby lobby) is 30 minutes away and the quality and service aren't up to par. With your website I can get most everything I need in a very short period of time and with anything that isn't available I can sign up for emails to let me know when they become available. Thank you for being my go-to bead supplier!"
- Michelle via mobile

I so much appreciate the fast service and the fast shipping when I order from Aunties's Beads! Absolutely love Beader's Advantage!
- Shelby from Oregon

I love Auntie's Beads! I feel as though I am doing business with friends; I know you care about what we think & that is so important to me! Great service, quick delivery & most of all, I LOVE Karla Kam! Karla is great and the videos are so clear and helpful! Love "our" bead chat group! Great support and encouragement! You're the best!
- Patsy from Arizona

Being rather new to jewelry making I am eager to learn. Auntie's Beads not only has the supplies I will need but also the knowledge to help. My Beader's Advantage Membership will allow me to explore this new world without going broke!!!
- Pam from Huron, Ohio

Good products at a good price...beads always "as advertised" and arrive on time.
- Richard from Tyler, Texas

I had never ordered from Auntie's Beads until Last Dec. 2011. I placed an order, and within a couple of days, it was in my mailbox. WOW!! that is Customer Service. I had ordered from other companies, and my wait time was 5-7 days. I will be placing all my orders from Auntie's Beads.
- Teri from Indianapolis

I am a fairly new beader. I would like to commend you all on your superior service. You have all the items that I need at a great price and they are always correct when they arrive. My products arrive pretty quickly. Just awesome!
- Tiana from High Point, NC

Starry Veil Earrings

 

A starry veil of crystals and chain drape from the coppery filigree creating a beautiful cascade.  Swarovski Crystal Bronze Shade has hints of copper that accentuates the antique copper chain and filigree finding in this chandelier earring.

 

Karla Schafer, Auntie’s Beads Designer

 

Instructions:

  1. Using the chain nose pliers, open the earwire slip on the filigree finding at its narrowest point, as in the photo, and close.
  2. Cut 2 ¼” chain (8 oval links) in length.
  3. Using the chain nose pliers and round nose pliers, open a jump ring, slipping one end of the chain onto it and through the loop of the filigree, just above the widest part, refer to photo for proper placement, and close.
  4. Repeat Step 3 for the other end of the chain.
  5. Prepare the crystals by slipping one onto a head pin, trimming the wire with the nipper tool, to just over 3/8” from the top of the bead and make a rosary loop with the Wire Looping Tool or Round Nose Pliers as demonstrated in the Earrings with Chain Video.
  6. Prepare all crystals as in Step 5 for (4) 4mm bicones, (3) 6mm bicones and (1) 8mm bicone.
  7. Attach each crystal opening the rosary loops with the chain nose pliers, in order from the first link (attaching into the tiny chain links skipping the ovals) 4mm; 6mm; 4mm; 6mm (middle); 4mm; 6mm; 4mm.
  8. Attach the 8mm bicone to the middle loop of the filigree finding.
  9. To ensure the right drape effect, make sure the jump rings fall to the back of the filigree, which they will naturally tend to do.
  10. Repeat the above steps to complete the pair.
