    Quick Project Steps

    Select a wire form or connector of your choice in terms of shape and size.
    Cut a piece of 26 gauge wire, wrapping it around the wire form, incorporating seed beads of your choice as you wrap.
    Create a bail at the top of the wire form to attach the ear wire later.
    Add dangles, such as Czech Leaf Drop Beads or crystal teardrops, to the bottom of the form using wrapped wire loops.
    Finish wrapping, ensure all wire ends are trimmed and tucked to avoid sharp edges.
    Attach the ear wire to the bail created in step 3, completing one earring. Repeat the process for the second earring.
