Cut 50 cm of copper wire. Wrap the end around the junction between the center of the flower and a petal.
String 5 Seed beads in Canary, 3 Light Squash, 3 Light Watermelon, 3 Light Squash, 5 Canary. Bend the thread around the Light Watermelon beads, leaving a few millimeters free at the base of the petal. Next, bring the thread close to the base of the petal, pinch the beads at both ends of the thread and wind the thread around itself, holding and turning the part with the beads. Make two turns.
Pass the thread through the petal of the pendant, behind the beaded petal. Then pass the thread through the next petal of the pendant.
Repeat steps 2 and 3 until you have 8 petals evenly distributed on the gold pendant. Pass the thread through the pendant petal behind the last beaded petal, then through the center of the pendant.
String 13 Limestone-colored beads. Prevent them from falling inside the center of the pendant. Pass through the first bead to form a loop. Then thread through the next 6 beads. Gently tighten to place the bead circle in the center of the flower.
Next, thread through the nearest golden petal, then back through the center and behind the first circle of Limestone-colored beads. Thread 7 beads again and, as in step 5, pass through the first 4 beads to form a loop. Tighten.
Pass the thread through a petal of the pendant again, then through the center of the pendant and between the two circles of beads. Finally, to complete the heart of the flower, thread a Watermelon-colored Seed beads. Pass the thread over the 7-bead circle and between the two circles to place the bead in the center. Finish by wrapping the thread around the junction between a golden petal and the heart of the flower pendant.
Glue a small cabochon to the center of the earstuds. Open the ring at the back by rotating the opening with flat-nose pliers and slide the flower pendant into it. Then close the ring.
