Persuasion Earrings

Tammy Powley
Anne Elliot is the heroine in Jane Austen’s Persuasion. Unlike some of Austen’s female characters, Anne is more mature. Therefore, I tried to create earrings that would be appropriate for an older heroine to wear. That is why I selected jet crystal beads to accent the sterling wire.

To make a pair, you’ll need:

2 small teardrop jet crystal beads
4 - 4mm round jet crystal beads
5 inches of 22-21 gauge sterling round wire
2 ear hooks
6 head pins
Pencil, pen, or similar sized dowel
Round-nosed pliers
Wire cutters
Chain-nosed pliers
