Supplies:
2 Polystone roses
4 eye pins
2 ball tip head pins
4 Shimmer crystal beads 8M round
4 Bead Caps (Sweet Beads) 6M
2 Fish hook ear wires
Additional Supplies:
Chain nose pliers
Round nose pliers
Side cutters
Bent nose pliers
1.) Slide
one Polystone rose onto each of the 2 eye pins all the way, turn a 90 degree
bend into the top of the eye pin next to the hole. Trim off wire leaving a ¼-3/8 inch tail, bend
the wire tail up over and around to meet the 90 degree bend, creating a loop
that looks like the factory made one opposite.
2.) Now
slide 6M bead cap and an 8M round onto each of the two remaining eye pins. Turn
an eye loop by bending a 90 degree angel into the wire at the top of the bead,
trim off wire leaving a tail that is ¼ -3/8 inch long. Bend the wire up over and around to meet at
the 90 degree bend.
3.) Now
load the two ball tip head pins with a 6M bead cap and 8M round each, turn a
wrapped eye loop at the top of the bead, by bending a 90 degree angel into the
wire 1/8 inch or slightly less above the bead, with your round nose pliers bend
the wire up over and around, switch positions so that the pliers are holding
the loop from the bottom, and run the wire past the loop. Hold the loop with
your chain nose pliers, and gently wrap the tail around the 1/8th
inch space above the bead. Trim off
excess wire, after you have gone around the post 2-3 times.
4.) Open
the eye loops by gently bending the loop to the side, then attach the middle
section piece to the bottom of a rose section (with the bead caps on the bottom
(top is fine too-as long as they do all the same direction)). Open the bottom
of the middle section gently to add the bottom bead section. Gently open the
fish hook loop and add the rose dangle, and close eye loop. Repeat for opposite earring.
