How To Make Teardrop Chandelier Earrings

Add a peg, aligned between the bottom and side peg. Add another peg in the same position on the opposite side for a total of six pegs.

Wrap the 20-gauge wire around each peg, starting at the top and moving clockwise. Pull the wire taut and bring it underneath and over each pin for a counter-clockwise wrap. Finish with a second loop on the topmost pin.

Cut the ends close to the top loop with the flush cutters and remove the chandelier frame from the jig. Stretch the frame with your fingers to enable it to fit on an ear wire loop without starting to spring apart.

Attach the premade ear wires between the two loops at the top.

String one bead onto a headpin or 24-gauge wire and make a loop above the bead using the roundnose pliers. Open the loop and place it onto one of the loops of the chandelier frame. Repeat until all the chandelier loops have beads dangling from them.

Create a longer center dangle by stringing two beads together on a headpin or 24-gauge wire and leaving about 1/2 inch of straight wire at the top before making an eye loop. Attach it to the earwire at the top between the two loops. Repeat these steps for your other earring, and your ears will sparkle!
