Crystal Waters Drop Earrings
About this design:
These romantic earrings were made with Czech glass lantern beads which lend a sparkling elegance to this design. These are so simple to make and look gorgeous on. Make some extra pairs to share.
What you’ll need: (buy products below)
- Czech glass lantern beads in 6mm & 8mm
- Czech glass 4mm fire polished rounds (I used Island blue 8mm and Matte teal 6mm)
- 4 eye pins
- 2 head pins
- jump rings
- stardust ear posts
Step-by-Step Instructions:
|
Step 1: Slide the 8mm lantern bead onto an eye pin and create a loop on the end. Trim any excess wire. Repeat for the 6mm lantern bead. Follow the tip below for help with creating a loop. See Tip: Wire Wrap a Bead Link |
|
Step 2: Slide the 4mm Czech glass bead onto an eye pin and create a loop on the top. Follow the tip below for help making a bead charm. See Tip: Wire Wrap a Charm |
|
Step 3: Link all of the beads together with jump rings. Then attach the earring to the ear wire. |

Granny Nancy says:Oh yes, very pretty. I love earrings that dangle and sparkle for special occasions. I wish there were kits for making Christmas earrings without having to spend so much for all the “fixins.”
