Golden Link & Crystal Hoop Earrings

Tammy Powley
Links have become popular jewelry components. For this earring design, crystals dangle from gold-tone links to create fast as well as fashion-forward earrings.

You will need the following tools and supplies:

* 2 - 15mm Gold-plated links
* 2 - Electric-blue crystal rondelle beads
Gold-tone or brass ear hooks
About 6 inches of 21-gauge brass wire
Wire cutters
Chain-nosed pliers
Round-nosed pliers

*The gold-plated links came from a chain I received from Soft Flex, #CH-GLDR1.
The crystal beads came from Rings and Things, #28-000-007-273.
