Simple Swarovski Rondell Cylinder Earrings

Materials:
A - 5mm Round Rondell with one hole x 4 pcs
B - 5mm Swarovski Round #5000 Black Hem 2X x 2 pcs
C - Crimp bead silver plated x 4 pcs
D - T Flat head pin-3.0cm x 2 pcs
E - French hook with ball x 2 pcs
Tooling:
Flat nose pliers
Round nose pliers
Cutter


Let's start:
Step1: Slide crimp bead onto the T flat head pin. Flatten the crimp bead with flat nose pliers as shown.
Step2: Add items 1xA, 1xB, 1xA, 1xC through T flat head pin as illustrate.
Step3: Bend the excess T flat head pin to 90 degree with Round Nose Pliers.
Step4: Use Round Nose Pliers to make a round loop as illustrate.
Step5: Use Cutter to cut the excess head pin.
Step6: Use Round Nose Pliers/Flat Nose Plier to open the loop of ear hook in upward position.
Step7: Attached the open ear hook and beaded Rondell Cylinder. Close the opened loop in opposite direction. Done the first earring.
Step8: Repeat the above steps with another earring.


If you like bigger earring style, you may change the item A and item B to bigger size. You may also change item B to Pearl. This earring can match to Simple Swarovski Rondell Cylinder Necklace. Hee..


For proper beading instruction, normally is cut the excess head pin before the loop is made. To me, I find more practically is made the loop first before cut off the excess head pin to avoid overcut the excess pin. You may choose your own preference for this skill.
