The gemstone pendant earrings in the Côté Jardin collection are distinguished by their light elegance, combining moonstone, tourmaline, jade and lilac quartz. This DIY tutorial guides you through the creation of customizable fine pendants, ideal for exploring the world of stones while creating a unique and refined piece of jewelry. Each stone brings its own color and texture, allowing you to play with styles and variations as you wish.
Creating your own gemstone dangling earrings is a creative moment inspired by nature and authentic materials. In this DIY tutorial, we suggest you create a pair of earrings with delicate bangs, designed to highlight the light of the pearls and the movement of the jewel. It's an accessible, easy-to-make project, perfect for exploring the world of gemstones and creating a piece that suits you.
This model is part of the Côté Jardin collection, which features soft hues, natural combinations and subtle blends. Here, moonstone, tourmaline, jade and lilac quartz beads harmonize. Moonstone adds a pearly, luminous touch, tourmaline plays with organic, nuanced shades, jade evokes plant freshness, and lilac quartz adds a delicately colored note. Together, these gemstones create a look that's light, refined and full of character. To liven things up without overdoing it, a few round faceted pearls catch the light as you move: a small detail that changes everything, and gives this elegant yet lively look.
The idea behind these earrings is simple: compose several fine tassels of slightly different lengths to achieve a lovely fall and airy fringe effect. This type of arrangement makes it easy to vary colors and rhythms, while maintaining an elegant silhouette. You can also personalize your pair by adjusting the lengths, changing the order of the beads or creating a more minimalist version with a single stone, as you wish. You can also discover, in variation, how to make a silver version of this tutorial.

Prepare the fringe base
Cut 15 cm of thread. Insert a crush pearl at one end, then loop the thread back through the pearl to form a small loop and lock it in place. Crush the bead using flat-nose pliers (or special crush pliers). If you're a first-timer, you may like to refer to this data sheet: Making pretty finishes with crush pearls
Next, slip on a knot cover with closed rings: this will be used to hang an open ring at the end.
Prepare 1st fringe
String 9 faceted cube gemstone beads - Tourmaline (Ref. PGM-198), then 6 round old rose beads (Ref. PGM-477).
Finish by threading a squeeze bead (as in step 1), then a squeeze bead cover. Cut off excess thread with wire cutters.
Add an open ring to the 3 mm knot cover with closed rings.
Your 1st tassel is ready!
Prepare 2nd fringe
Repeat step 1, then string 20 round Quartz Lilac beads (Ref. PGM-246).
Finish with a crush bead, then a crush bead hider.
Add an open ring to the 3 mm knot hider with closed rings.
Prepare 3rd fringe
Repeat step 1, then string 4 Moonstone cube beads (Ref. PGM-442), 1 Lilac Quartz round bead (Ref. PGM-246), 1 round old rose pearl (Ref. PGM-477) and 10 round gold faceted pearls (Ref. RVC-861).
Finish with a crushable pearl, then a crushable pearl mask. Add an open ring to the 3 mm bow hider with closed rings.
Hang the 3 bangs on an oval creole.
Congratulations, your first loop is complete!
Repeat all the steps a second time: your pair of earrings is ready!
You can personalize them by changing the order of the pearls, choosing other gemstone pearls, or playing with the length of the bangs according to the desired effect.
