What supplies did you use to make the earrings?

Wire, beads, hammer

What techniques did you use to make the earrings?

First I made a spiral with my round pliers, then I bended them into a shape I wanted, and then I hammered the earrings. I added this silver bead that I bought in a hobby shop, and then I started to work on this little piece of wire which has pink beads on it. I decided that I want it to hang loose, but also, if i like, I can make it a piece from which the earring hook will hang. For now, I like them as they are now.

Tips and Tricks

  • lesson - not to hit with the hammer so hard! Also, next time I will try to maybe something else on the earring that will make the earring hook fixed on its top, now it moves all around the hammered wire.

What do you think make these earrings so special?

I like how I designed them!
