    • Quick Project Steps

    Step 1: Gather Materials Collect all required materials: 8/0 seed beads, 4mm pearls, green thread, wire guards, and ear wires. Step 2: Setup the First Beads String one 8/0 seed bead, one 10mm pearl, and another 8/0 seed bead. Pass your thread back through the first seed bead and pearl to form a small unit. Step 3: Create Right-Angle Weave Units Pick up four 8/0 seed beads, go back through the first bead, and form a right-angle weave unit. Repeat this step to create a total of six units. Step 4: Add Bicones and Shape the Earring Add an 8/0 seed bead, a bicone, and another 8/0 seed bead at the top of each right-angle unit to shape the earring. Step 5: Add the Wire Guard Attach a wire guard at the top, making sure it is secured tightly. Pass the thread through the wire guard and then back through the pearl. Step 6: Attach Ear Wires and Finish Tie off the thread securely. Attach the ear wires, ensuring that one earring faces left and the other right.
