Sticks & Stones Earrings

Project details:

in favorites

These earrings are a plan B. I started out wanting to make double earrings that draped between the posts, but the tiny bead link chain I made still didn't want to drape nicely. I do love stick earrings and this style sold really well as shows in the past. Creating different combinations of gemstone colors is a favorite thing of mine to do :)

Pair A: Tourmaline
Pair B: Pacific Blue Apatite, Apatite, Madagascar Amazonite
Pair C: Malachite, Tiger Eye, Apatite, Sunstone

Supplies you’ll need:

  • 3" headpins
  • pair of posts with loop
  • variety of tiny faceted saucers & rondelles
  • round nose pliers
  • wire cutters

Step-by-Step Instructions:

Step

Step 1

Create your bead collections that you will be using for your earrings.

Step

Step 2

String 2.25" of tiny faceted saucers onto a 3" headpin.
Tip: When you string the tourmaline, you already have a miexed color strand. Try stringing the headpin while the beads are still on the string.

Step

Step 3

Wire wrap a tiny loop and attach to open loop on the post.
