About this design:
For these budget friendly statement earrings, I made clusters of Czech glass bead charms and attached a pearl heart to the bottom for the perfect Valentines Day accessory!
What you’ll need: (buy products below)
- Headpins
- Jump Rings
- Earwires
- Czech Glass
- Mother of Pearl Hearts
Step-by-Step Instructions:
![]() |
Step 1: Use the headpins & Czech glass to make the bead charms- I ended up making about 25 per earring, but you can add more or less depending on how full you'd like the cluster to look. See Tip: Wire Wrap a Charm |
![]() |
Step 2: Cut a piece of chain a little less than 1" long. Attach jump rings holding 2-3 bead charms along the chain. Make a bead charm with the pearl heart & attach to the bottom of the chain with a jump ring. Attach a jump ring to the top of the chain and slide an earwire onto the jump ring. I also attached some of the bead charms to this jump ring as well. |

Crystal Canary says:Eliana, great pair of earrings! The soft colored clustered beads remind me of fringe and look wonderful with the pearl heart beads. I really like the textural effect they add. I have got to try this technique!
