Here's a quick and easy tutorial to add color and originality to your spring wardrobe. What's more, these heart earrings will cost you less than 10 euros and less than 8 euros per pair if you make three pairs. There are six golden studs in a bag, so you can make three pairs of earrings. Choose from several colors of XXL domed heart beads: transparent blue with effects, transparent red, marbled red, marbled turquoise or ecru. Prefer silver? That's just as well, because stud earrings are available in silver or gold. You'll find all these options in the variation section of the equipment list. And if you're thinking of using flat heart pendants instead, we have dozens of models available.
To make these earrings, you'll need to form a loop on a stud. This is one of the basic techniques of costume jewelry making. It takes a bit of practice to make round, identical earrings. Fortunately, the loop formed on the ball head stud is attached behind the heart ear studs. So, beginners, don't worry: no one will notice that your first stud earrings aren't exactly the same size or are a little misshapen! Just remember not to leave any gaps between the stud and the end of the earring, otherwise the heart pendant may come loose from the earring.
Thread the bead onto the nail. Fold the nail in just after the bead, forming a right angle.
Cut the nail 1 cm from the fold.
Form the loop: grasp the end of the nail with the round pliers, then turn the round pliers to form a loop in the opposite direction to the angle.
Open the formed loop by shifting the opening to the side with the flat pliers. Slide the ear stud into the loop and close it. Check that there is no gap between the stud and the end of the loop. Also check that the stud ring is closed.
