How To Make Dangling Bead And Chain Earrings

Transcript (abridged)
To make the earrings, you'll need two 8 mm round beads, 2" of gold loop chain, 2 headpins, also gold, and 2 earring wires in gold. For tools, you need round-nose pliers and wire cutters. To get started we're going to take our length of chain here. And for this design we're going to use 6 of the large links in the chain for each earring. So I'm going to count 6 lengths of the large loop. I want to cut the chain right through the link that's underneath the number 6 loop. I'm using my wire cutters and cutting that. And now to make the earring, I'm going to feed a bead onto one of our headpins. The hole in my bead is larger than the little flat end of my headpin. So it's an easy mistake to fix. We're going to use a tiny little gold bead. Slide that onto our head pin. We can make a wrapped loop right above that bead using our round-nose pliers. I'm grasping the wire of my head pin with my round-nose pliers. I'm going to bend the wire toward me 90 degrees, reposition the pliers to the top of that bend, pull the wire up and over at the top jaw of my pliers, reposition the pliers so the bottom jaw is in the loop now, and then I'm going to pull the wire around to finish the loop. I'm going to dangle my chain and fish the end of my headpin wire into that last loop. And now I want to wrap the loop. I'm going to use my round-nose pliers. I'm going to grasp across the loop and then pull the tail of my head to the wire around the neck two times. I'm just going to trim the end using my wire cutters. We've got our bead attached to our chain. All we have to do is add our earring wire to the top. There's a little loop on the back of our earring wire. I'm going to use my round-nose pliers, and I'm just going to grab on to that little loop and I'm gonna rotate up and rotate the other part of the earring wire down. I can take my chain and feed that first link of the chain through that earring wire loop and then use my round-nose pliers to just rotate and close that loop. And there is our first earring. I'm going to repeat those steps to create my matching earring. And there we have a beautiful pair of bead and chain earrings.

Love these earrings! What is better than turquoise? or green? or sea glass? or.....well, nothing is better.
We agree to agree!!!

what size of chain did you use foe these earrings, what size do you ask for when ordering?
Hi Lorene,
We used chain with 2mm links. But you can use any chain as long as the wire fits through it. Here's the compete how-to with photos on our blog. runningwithsisters.com/bead-and-chain-earrings/ Hope that helps!

They look difficult, but we now know otherwise. We won't tell...
It'll be our little secret!
