Sometimes you just have to simplify to get stunning results and when I received these beautiful teardrop shell beads from Wholeport I knew I wanted to show off their beauty.
So I decided to make some simple earrings.
Supplies:
- Beads
- Headpins
- Earring hooks
- Jump rings
Thread the bead onto the headpin.
Bend the bead 90 degrees to one side.
Then using a pair of needle nosed pliers loop it around in the opposite directions.
Using a jump ring attach them to the earring hooks.
DIY Delight or Disaster? I love these beads I think they are just so pretty and stunning on their own so I'm going with delight. Don't forget to checkout the rest of Wholeport's bead range here.
