Perhaps you've already started reproducing our tutorials from the Winter Ball collection, but if not, it's time to take a closer look. The holidays are coming and time is running out! Enter the world of crystals and pearly beads to shine brightly this year-end.
After Margaux's pearly pearl necklace and Tiffanie's bow-tie earrings, it's Carla's turn to offer you dangling earrings with freshwater pearls and PureCrystal drops. The tutorial is at an intermediate level, but if you're a beginner it's entirely possible to create these earrings by carefully following the steps and using a gold-plated stainless steel beaded chain, which you'll find in the material variations at the bottom of the page. To reproduce them is very simple, you'll need 16x17mm gold-plated stainless steel stud earrings,13x6.5 mm PureCrystal Crystal Golden Shadow drops and 0.4 mm gold-plated stainless steel round flexible wire.
Carla has used golden tones and a clear PureCrystal drop, but you can totally personalize the jewel with a silver version, for example. For the most creative souls, you can create a range of earrings in different colors, simply by changing the drop. And why not slip them under the Christmas tree as a gift? You can also choose to create these earrings for yourself to bring a vintage chic style to your outfits.
For the holidays, you can wear these earrings with a pretty black or sequined dress to highlight the elegance and beauty of the pearly pearls and PureCrystal drop. With this pretty jewel, you're sure to stand out from the crowd. All eyes will be on you!
We can't wait to see your creations! Feel free to send us photos of your earrings and share them on Facebook and Instagram by tagging Perles & Co or using #perlesandco!
Start by unwinding a piece of wire. Using round-ended pliers, form a loop. Bend the wire with the pliers so that it forms a right angle. Leave about 1 cm for a medium-sized loop. Cut and wrap the rod around the round ends in the opposite direction to the right angle.
If you prefer, you can also use pliers to form loops.
Once the loop is closed, thread on a bead and make a second loop. Repeat the step a second time.
When the earrings and pearls are finished, hook them onto the stud and then between them. Reopen the loop a little to pass them between them, then close it again.
Next, we'll thread the PureCrystal drop. To do this, make a slightly larger loop in the middle of the clip.
Then thread on the drop and close the loop.
Slide on a bead, then make a second loop.
Hang this bead on the rest of the earring to finish it off.
