These Gaea pieces are perfect for a great pair of earrings! Artsy, statement pieces just waiting to be embellished are a dream for me :)

↓ Step-by-step
↓ Buy the supplies

Supplies you’ll need:

  • Gaea Original Art Little Birds
  • 2-3mm faceted gemstone beads
  • 2 earwires
  • 14 headpins
  • 6 jump rings
  • needle nose & bent nose pliers

Step-by-Step Instructions:

Step

Step 1

Begin with a great selection of tiny beads. I like to use tiny faceted gemstones, but I imagine you could also do this project with seed beads too. String 4-6 beads on each headpin and wire wrapping a loop to make them into a charms.

Step

Step 2

Layout your headpins in the order that you want to attach them to the chandelier focal.

Step

Step 3

Place each grouping onto a jump ring and attach to the appropriate hole placement on the the chandelier focal.
