Fine Silver Link, Pearl, and Crystal Earrings

Tammy Powley
After making my Metal Clay Textured Fine Silver Links, I came up with this earring design which incorporates the links. If you aren't interested in making the metal clay links yourself, you can easily substitute any type of similar link or even a large jump ring would do fine.

You'll need:

2 - 12mm Metal Clay Textured Fine Silver Links
12 inches of 24-gauge sterling round wire
4 - 4-5mm oval pearl beads
*2 - 4mm Swarovski AB clear round crystals
2 - 3/4 inch pieces of sterling link chain
2 - 5mm sterling jump rings
Ear hooks (purchased or make them yourself)
Round-nosed pliers
2 Chain-nosed pliers
Wire Cutters

*These came from Fire Mountain Gems & Beads.
