Gorgeous rich green jade off-center donuts are embellished with textural suede and a glistening pearl. This is a unique style with an elegant twist.

Supplies you’ll need:

  • Glass pearls
  • Brazil Nephrite Jade Off Center Donut 16mm
  • 5mm jet microsuede 1ft
  • Ear wire
  • 24 gauge wire
  • scissors
  • leather punch or a large needle to poke a hole in the suede

Step-by-Step Instructions:

Step

Step 1

Cut 2" of suede. String on the donut.

Step

Step 2

Cut a 3" piece of wire. Start wrapping it around both pieces if the suede. I wrapped it three times then added on my pearl.

Step

Step 3

Slide on the pearl and wrap the wire 3 more times.

Step

Step 4

Trim any excess wire.

Step

Step 5

This step is optional. I used a pair of scissors to cut the ends of the suede at an angle.

Step

Step 6

Use a leather punch or large pin to poke a hole through the center of the suede. Now attach the suede to your ear wire.
