These mod-style earrings make quite a statement with shimmering resin beads.

↓ Step-by-step
↓ Buy the supplies

Supplies you’ll need:

  • 2 resin rounds 20mm
  • 2 resin rounds 8mm
  • head pins in both finishes
  • ear posts
  • jump rings
  • 1 ft of chain in both finishes

Step-by-Step Instructions:

Step 1

Cut the chain to your desired length. I cut and 1.5" of the gold chain and 1" of the silver chain.

Step 2

Slide a spacer bead then a resin round onto a head pin. Create a loop at the top of the head pin with round nose pliers. Wrap the loops wire tail several times around the base of the loop. I made my coils flat so it almost created a bead cap on top. See the design image. Trim any excess wire.

See Tip: Wire Wrap a Charm

Step 3

Assemble everything together with jump rings.
