Openwork Leaf Earrings
by Elaina W on 09/09/21
About this design:
I love how small & lightweight these wood resin openwork leaf focals are- they're perfect for a simple, easy-to-make pair of earrings! I paired mine with Czech glass trica beads & gold accents.
What you’ll need: (buy products below)
- Wood Resin Openwork Leaf Focals
- Czech Glass Trica Beads
- Gold 6mm Rounds
- Gold 24 gauge Wire
- Gold Earwires
Step-by-Step Instructions:
![]() |
Step 1: With the wire, make a bead link using a trica bead & a gold round. Slide the top of the link onto an earwire and attach the bottom of the link directly to the leaf focal. See Tip: Make a Wire Wrapped Bead Link |
