About this design:
Loving these Red Agate stones that look like Rubies or The pinkish Rhodolite Garnets to me. I did a simple 3 bead earring,but couldn't leave them alone.Also changed the Ear Wires to the beautiful long ones from Lima. I'm assuming the Agates are dyed, as theyre so perfect.
Loop and loop,and loop,and loop... ;+)
Components:
Dyed Red Agate 6mm,GP ball head pins,jump rings 5mm. G Plated ear wires from Lima,which are gorgeous!Additional Images:

Nancy Mc says:Thanks to all you nice ladies. This us such a simple design,but so pretty to wear.
I hope the pic shows it’s just simple loops for the stones,and attaching one jump ring under the other.
Copy away!

Moogie says:These look absolutely tasty! Great job! Those agate gems are exceptionally clear & pretty. Almost makes me want to get my ears pierced again. Nope. Could easily do this for clipons though☺️
Fyi, I got them pierced MANY years ago & they never healed right.

pearlsandme aka Monica says:Delicious beads — they look just like a bunch of redcurrants!
Moogie, I know the problem, decided to try a second time last spring — and it turned out allright! But I had to keep disinfecting the piercings twice a day, for nearly two months! But after that they’ve been just fine! (But if you are allergic to the metal you use, even that won’t help.)

Nancy Mc says:Thank you for much. I hear you on the ear piercing thing.My friend did mine at 16 in her bedroom. The ice cube and sewing needle method. Oh the pain! What were we thinking?
Monica,red currants is exactly what they look like. Swedish grandmother grew them in the yard and made jelly and a Christmas punch.
Awesome memory.
