Gather up your RounDuos, Miyuki seed beads, Potomac Crystal Rondelles, earwires, size 10 needle and 30 inches of thread. Working on a bead mat will keep you more organized and efficient.

As the sun hides behind the moon during a total eclipse, one round bead on these classy little double-sided earrings hides another. These Eclipse earrings are a great way to add a touch of style to any outfit. They are also a great gift for any occasion.
