How to Make Marvelous Beaded Fringe Earrings

Hello everyone! Do you like fringe earrings? Today I’d like to show you how to make a couple of crystal beaded fringe earrings. It won’t take long to make them, and the procedures are quite simple. But those earrings are really elegant! Let’s have a look together!

Eyepins

Iron chains

Jumprings

How to make the beaded fringe earrings:

Step 1: Make the crystal beaded fringe.

1^st, make five bead links like the picture shows below, then alternatively slide all the five bead links and four blue crystal beads to an eyepin. Fix the beaded fringe by making a loop at the end of the eyepin.

2^nd, cut 15cm cooper wire, thread a crystal drop bead to the middle of the wire and twist the wires together. Use the round nose plier to make a loop at the top of the bead, wrap the wires around the loop, and then cut off the excess wires. Repeat to make another four drop bead pendant.

Step 2: Finish the chain fringe earrings.

1^st, attach the all five drop pendants to the bead links. Then prepare two 6cm iron chains, and separately link them to the two ends of the beaded fringe. Next, connect the other ends of the two chains by a jumpring.

2^nd, finish one chain fringe earring by adding an earring hook to the jumpring. Then repeat all the procedures above to make another fringe earring.
