Post a Tip about this Tutorial

These earrings are very easy to make and are a wonderful way to quickly add inventory during this busy holiday season. Make them larger or with different pattern wires to change them up. Make them all silver or all gold, or even in copper. Have fun!

Nice earrings, Miss Dawn! They match your solitaire that you did with Bobbi's tutorial perfectly! I bet they make a really elegant set!

Miss Perri, These match Bobbi's ring, a cross and a bracelet I do as well. That's what makes them so fun for me. I love sets!

Dawn

Any way to get a photo of the entire earring including the post? Nice design :)
