From amethyst to zebra stone, the possibilities are endless when it comes to designing gemstone earrings. Here are some earring projects for the gemstone lover.
Turquoise Onyx Pewter Earrings
Three segments of beads - turquoise, onyx, and pewter - give these dangling earrings lots of movement.
Rose Quartz and Pewter Bead Earrings
The pewter beads in these earrings provide lots of detail at a reasonable cost compared to sterling silver beads.
Sensibility Earrings
These Sensibility Earrings are one of two pair I made after being inspired by Jane Austen's Sense and Sensibility.
Faceted Garnet and Silver Hoop Earrings
The cuts created around the beads, or facets, add a wonderful dimension to these garnet beads.
Stars & Stripes Lampwork Earrings
Hematite stars dangle from fragments of chain and red, white, and blue lampwork beads top off these earrings which have a patriotic flair.
Blast from the Past Crystal Earrings
I used to make and sell these crystal and hematite star earrings like hot cakes back in the day.
Rock Candy Earrings
It looks like candy, but it's really howlite mixed with hematite in this earring project.
Wrap and Curl Earrings
Make these carnelian and poppy jasper bead and wire earrings using some simple wire wrapping techniques.
Sense Earrings
Because Jane Austen's novel Sense and Sensibility has two heroines, I've created two earrings for it, so this is the "sense" pair.
No Wire Hanger Earrings
Unless you make them into a pretty pair of earrings like I did here. Use wire and beads to make a earring that will remind you of little wire earrings.
Star Spangled Crystal Earrings
Mix colorful red, white, and blue crystals with hematite stars to make a pair of patriotic earrings.
