You’ll need the following:
2 brass stamped charms – 1 tea cup and 1 tea bag
2 gold-filled or gold-tone ear hooks

Flat or bent-nosed pliers
Wire Cutters
Jewelers’ file
Note about brass: Yes, you are right if you’re thinking that brass oxidizes easily and will discolor eventually, but for certain jewelry designs I like that look, especially for earrings like these since the oxidizing will create a vintage look the earrings over time. However, if you prefer to keep your brass shiny, a simple swipe now and then with a polishing cloth is one quick way to clean them occasionally.
