Merci pour ce tutoriel, j'ai réussi à les réaliser sans problèmes.

Bienvenue! :)

Thank You Kaelynn for this great tutorial, i always wondered how you did this and now i know. I cant make these earrings at the moment because ive hurt my arm but as soon as its better this will be one of the first things i have a go at. Thanks so much for giving us this free tut, diane

This is a lovely tutorial, and so easy to read. I have been wanting a tutorial like this for a long time. Just be careful when you print it, it is in the PDF twice. It says 14 pages, and is 7 pages. Just print the first 7 pages. LOL, I have 14 printed!
Thank you for this...Diana

You are welcome, Diane! Make sure to show off what you make, ok? :D

Karen

Diana, whoops! I don't know how that happened! I'll fix it as soon as possible. :)

Karen

Diane, thanks so much. I've been wanting to do more wire techniques in my earring designs, & this will help me....phyl

Thank you so much for this tutorial. The earrings are awesome! I am going to make these for my mother-in-law! She loves flashy and these are! Thank you for the great work!

I love these earrings and would love to make them, but I am having trouble downloading the tutorial. When I click on the download button I get a message that Adobe cannot download it. Can you help me?

A million thanks for so generously sharing this information.

Suzan, I'm not sure what the problem is...I'll email Eni and ask her to check the pdf file, ok?

You're welcome, Carol! :) Can I assume that you didn't have any trouble downloading the project then?

Um...I've been making a version of this type of earring since 2006...I thought I had invented them! I'm not sure what one does in this situation...your tutorial says do not mass produce but my similar design is my best seller and I have never seen any others like them in the UK.

This tutorial was originally released in 2006 and I was making them for a couple of years before that. Like you, they are my best selling design. Honestly, this is such a simple design that it wouldn't be hard for several people to come up with it completely independently. When I say "do not mass produce" that simply means "don't hire someone else to make them for you in an assembly line fashion". :)

sorry but how can i have it?

Elisabeth, if you look over to the right of the photo where it says "My Tools" you'll see "Download Tutorial". Right under that is a blue link that if you click it will start downloading the tutorial. Hope that helps!

What a great tutorial.Great pictures. Easy to follow instructions! Thank you so much.

You are most welcome!

Karen

Thank you so much for this easy tutorial. Saw these a couple of years ago and didn't think they would be too hard to make( I was right). Cant' wait to make some.

You are most welcome!

I think these earings are fantastic. Thank you so much for submitting the tutorial.
