It's a little cutesie tootsie fan shape earrings!
Now let's start making a pair.
Step 1:
Cut 1.1 inch x 21ga (.07mm) wire.
Measure about .75cm from the tip of the wire and bend using your flat nose pliers.
Step 2:
Grip the tip of the bent wire with your round nose pliers and make a loop.
Step 3:
Slide in 1 x 0.4cm bicone and 5 11/0 round seed beads.
Bend the wire 90 degrees like so.
Then make a loop. Now you have 1 looped beads. Repeat the steps and create 6 more.
Step 4:
Cut 2.1 inches x 21ga (0.7mm) wire and and make a loop on one end.
Step 5:
Bring up one looped beads and slide into your 2.1 inches wire, followed by a bicone.
Continue to slide in the rest of the looped beads with a bicone in between.
Step 6:
Hook up the other end of the looped beads into a 1cm diameter jump ring. As you attach the jump ring bend the wire to from an arc.
Step 7:
Cut the bent wire leaving at least .75cm of wire from the tip, or just enough to form a loop at the end.
Step 8:
Bring up 1 x 1cm faceted round bead and string the bead into piece of 26ga wire. Position the bead at the center of the wire and on jump ring.
Wrap one end of the wire onto the jump ring, securing the round faceted bead. Do the same for the other end. Tuck neatly and cut of excess wires.
Step 9:
Attach a 0.8cm jump ring onto the bigger jump ring.
Then attach your ear wire.
Repeat from start and create a pair. You're done!
