These earrings have an unexpected swag shape and dangle at just the right length. I used shell pearls for a classic look. These would be perfect for your wedding day or any evening event.

Supplies you’ll need:

You will need a 6mm of shell pearls, (2) 3mm jump rings, ear wire, 22 gauge wire (at least 2.5" per earring), and 5" of tiny flat oval silver chain.

Step-by-Step Instructions:

Step

Step 1

Gather your supplies. Cut you wire to two 2.5" long segments. Also cut your chain into four 1.25" segments.

Step

Step 2

Slide 3 pearls onto each piece of wire. String one wire end through the end loop on the chain.

Step

Step 3

Create a loop by using your round nose pliers and then wrapping wire around 2-3 times. Check out our Tip and Technique to learn how to create a bead link.

See Tip: Wire Wrap a Bead Link

Step

Step 4

Repeat Step 3 on the opposite side.

Step

Step 5

Add the jump ring to connect your chain ends. Then place onto your ear wire.
