PotomacBeads Tutorials are a great way to learn new stitches and techniques. In this tutorial, we will show you how to make these beautiful Ogee Earrings. These earrings feature a combination of three stitches to really add interest. The pearls in the center are a timeless classic.
Begin by making the center of the center of the project by threading on four Potomac pearls and tie into a knot. Thread back through the first pearl. Add an 11/0 seed bead in between each pearl. Add ten 15/0s in between each of the 11/0 seed beads.
Start the brick stitch by skipping over two of the bridge threads and thread in two 11/0s. You will use seven of them to fill the first arch. Repeat for each of the four arches.
Watch the Ogee Earrings tutorial with Allie to see how she uses brick stitch to complete the outer edge and attach the wire guard with another pearl bead.
These simple little Ogee Earrings can easily be adapted to many different styles depending on your preference. They are perfect for adding a touch of glamour to any outfit the way they catch the light and add a bit of sparkle. They would also look great with a casual outfit like jeans and a t-shirt.
