Blue Resin Earrings

Tammy Powley
While you can make resin components yourself, you can also purchase pre-made resin beads and components to use in your jewelry designs. The hoop components in these earrings came from Natural Touch Beads, and I combined them with some crystal drop beads, a little wire, and some findings to make these light-weight earrings.

You'll need the following materials and supplies:

2 - 23x31mm blue teardrop slice components
1 pair of sterling ear hooks (I made the ear hooks pictured.)
2 - 5mm sterling jump rings
2 - 2 inch sterling head pins
Round-nosed pliers
Chain-nosed pliers
Wire cutters
