Red hearts are wire-wrapped with a herringbone pattern, giving a modern edge to this earring design.

Supplies you’ll need:

  • Czech glass hearts
  • 24 gauge wire
  • endless hoops
  • round-nose pliers and wire cutters

Step-by-Step Instructions:

Step

Step 1

Cut 10" of wire. Create a loop about 4" down from the end of the wire. Wrap the short wire tail around the base of the loop 8 times. Trim the wire.

Step

Step 2

Slide on a heart bead.

Step

Step 3

Hold the bead between your fingers to help guide the wire around it. Bring the wire tail up around the right side of the bead, while pushing on the wire to shape it around the bead. Bring the wire around the front bottom part of the coil. Bring the wire around the coil until it gets to the front.

Step

Step 4

Bring the wire around to the left side, down, around the bottom of the bead, and back up around the front of the center coil. Repeat Step 3. I repeated Steps 3-4 three times.

Step 5

Slide the hearts onto the hoops.
