Copper thread PureCrystal pearl earrings by Isabelle Perez

Create PureCrystal bead earrings with copper wire. The colors of this jewel will refine any outfit.

Thanks to Isabelle Perez for this tutorial.

Step 1:

Cut 58 cm of copper wire, then place the PureCrystal teardrop halfway down the wire. To finish this step, place the charm and join the wires.

Step 2:

With the tips joined, insert the 5 mm PureCrystal, place the Crimp beads and leave enough space for the rings to hold. Before tightening the second Crimp bead, open the wires a little.

Step 3:

Take a rod and a 5 mm PureCrystal bead, using flat-nose pliers to ensure they stick together.

Step 4:

Rotate by taking the round pliers and with the short pliers, then cut off what's left. When they are in the same place, take the flat pliers to close the ring.

You'll need to repeat this step 6 times: 2 PureCrystals of 5 mm and the rest of 4 mm.

Step 5:

In step 2, we said that two beads had been set and a gap left. In this step, we need to do the same thing again. Place another Crimp bead.

The beads placed are: Bottom 1 PureCrystal 5mm, 2 PureCrystal 4mm. Top: 1 PureCrystal 5mm, 2 PureCrystal 4mm.

Step 6:

Once the beads are securely closed with the rings open, you can get ready to put on the last Crimp bead.

Followed by a second thread that you'll add, it doesn't need to be more or less long enough to leave the earring hook.

Step 7:

Tighten the beads and cut the remaining wires.

Step 8:

In step 6 a second thread was placed, now use it to thread the last Crimp bead.

Step 9:

Tighten the bead, cut the wires and close it.

PLEASE NOTE: In the material list below, we've changed some of the finishes (so the references don't match the illustrative photos in this tutorial, but give a similar rendering).

We'd love to see your version of this pair of earrings... so don't hesitate to send us photos on Facebook.
