Post a Tip about this Tutorial

Just an added note: The shaped pieces can also be done in 18g soft wire for a more filled in look. The copper earring were done this way.

Stunning, I can see myself making a matching bangle. The only thing is (as always) that my sisters will want one too.

beautiful earrings, athena! they would look pretty oxidised,too.

Beadydani, I did make a silmilar bangle... I'll post a picture very soon. And tell your sisters to make one!!

I have thought about oxidizing them clopatra-gr, but I don't have all the supplies for it right now. I will in a few weeks and post a pic :)

Great earrings. I love it! And now I am thinking if I am going to key in that PIN number for those ones.

I'm glad you like them HarleyV. Thanks for your comment :)

I love these earrings! I'm interested in buying the tutorial so read everything about this I could. I find it SO UNFAIR that you got 2 stars out of 5 in the rating since not one of the 5 voters have even bought your tutorial. How could they possibly rate it as to well written & explained. Trust me, when I buy this & read it over, I'll be writing a better review for you!

Thanks you so much for your support Jude. And I warmly welcome your review!
