Double, double, toil and trouble! Stir up some serious spooky style this season with our Bubbling Cauldron Earrings. The ultimate statement piece for Halloween lovers, witchcore fashionistas, and anyone who appreciates a touch of eerie elegance. These earrings are 3" in length, making them so fun to wear. I do suggest wearing the PVC clutch for support.

Supplies you’ll need:

  • 2 Lampwork cauldron beads
  • head pins, 24-gauge 3" and 26-gauge 2" (you need both sizes)
  • Miyuki seed bead mix
  • Czech glass druk beads
  • Czech glass fire-polished rounds
  • Czech glass stars
  • Czech glass rings
  • super glue

Recommended tools: round-nose pliers and wire cutters

Step-by-Step Instructions:

Step

Step 1

Take three 3" head pins and two 2" head pins and slide them all up through the cauldron bead. I add a touch of glue just above the heads of the pins. This will hold them in place while you work. The headpins will stack slightly at the bottom of the cauldron. Just flatten them as much as possible with your pliers. Don’t worry if they aren't perfectly flat—they won't be visible at all when the earrings are worn!

Step

Step 2

Move the pins around a bit so there is one 3" head pin in the middle to attach your ear wire to. Slide all the head pins through an emerald ring.

Step

Step 3

Start sliding seed beads on; bend the wire while sliding the beads on. Work on one pin at a time, looping each end before starting the next. If the wire is too long, trim it first with wire cutters. Then, use round-nose pliers to bend the tip into a clean loop.

Step

Step 4

Finish the rest of the head pins the same way. Attach the ear wire to the middle head pin loop.
