    Quick Project Steps

    PotomacBeads tutorial is proud to present designer Tereza's Shine Bright Earrings. These star shaped dangle earrings have just the right amount of shimmer to dress up any outfit.
    Using a size 12 needle on about an arm span length of thread, pick up a diamond halo and thread a RounDuo mini inside of it. Add five more halo/RounDuo mini combinations. Tie them into a circle. Step up by bringing the thread out of a RounDuo mini, not the halo. Put on one demi round and go through the halo. Put a RounDuo in between the halos. Pick up a demi round and thread through the next RounDuo. Continue around the star shape.
    Watch the Shine Bright earrings tutorial with Tereza to watch detailed step-by-step instructions.
    Add the leverback to the top and reinforce the loop by threading back through the 15/0s and demi round. Go back down through the side and create a loop and tie it carefully, bring the thread end through a few more beads and cut it off. Thread the tail end and hide it.
    One of the great things about PotomacBeads Shine Bright Earrings is that they can be made with a variety of colors. This means that you can easily find the perfect shade to match any outfit or occasion. What about using holiday colors to make decorations or Christmas gifts?
