Materials Used To make The  Project

Quick Project Steps

Starting the Earrings: Gather 6mm beads, 2/3mm bicones, and 11/0 seed beads. Begin with right-angle weave units using 11/0 seed beads, crystals, and 6mm beads. Creating the Base: Form right-angle units with 11/0 seed beads, crystals, and 6mm beads. Tie the beads with thread and add another unit, sewing through the 6mm bead. Embellishing the Earrings: Add three 11/0 seed beads, a crystal, and another three 11/0 seed beads. Create an X design on top of the right-angle weave units. Embellish both units similarly, creating a cascading crystal effect. Finishing the Earrings: Attach a wire guard and ear wire at the top. Reinforce the thread and secure the earrings. Customize with different 6mm materials or add longer drops at the bottom.
