_L5J9458.jpgTO MAKE DANGLING BEAD EARRINGS YOU WILL NEED:

  • 20 cm gauge no. 5 cable wire, P60 per roll
  • 16 pcs spacers from O-ring chain, P50 for 20 pcs.
  • 2 pcs bead stoppers, P25 for 1000 pcs
  • 2 pcs fish hooks, P30 for 100 pcs
  • 4 pcs blue glass bead, P22 for 6 pcs
  • 4 pcs yellow citrine, P5 per pc
  • 4 pcs pearl stone, P5 per pc
  • 10 inches chains, p75 for 4 yards
  • 8 pcs coral beads, P70 per string of beads
  • 8 pcs of Class A rainbow crystals, P120 per 30 pcs
  • 2 pcs teardrops or elongated bead, P120 per 30 pcs

Spacers are any of the minute accessories used in-between beads to provide aesthetic spaces between them. They come in different forms, with metallic and ring spacers as the most common ones.

PROCEDURE:

 Step 1. Using a pair of 2-in-1 pliers, cut two 10-cm length of gauge no. 5 cable wire. Set aside one of the cut wires. With the other, create a loop and put the teardrop bead stone in the middle of the loop. Always remember that in bead making, the most stunning stone should always be placed in the middle of the loop.

After placing the teardrop bead stone in the center of the looped wire, insert spacers on both sides of the teardrop bead stone. Insert yellow citrines and a spacer next to the teardrop stone and spacers already in place.

Step 2. To create dangles for the earrings, cut two sets of 2 inch-long and 3 inch-long chains. Set aside one set. Insert one end of a 2-inch chain onto one end of the looped wire, then insert the other end of the chain to the other wire end. Add the blue glass beads and another spacer to both sides of the beads, then string the 3 inch-long chain like the first one.
