    Quick Project Steps

    These fun and funky fan shaped Layered Ribbon Earrings use a simple design that is easily adapted to suit your style needs. Check out our matching Layered Ribbon Collar necklace to make a modern looking set that will add that bit of flair you're looking for.
    Begin a pattern with three 11/0s, four sparkle beige beads, three delicas and four champagne beads. Add four more champagne beads and bring the needle back down through the delicas, then add four more beige beads bringing the needle through the 11/0s and out by the stop bead. This will form the second row of the Peyote stitch.

    Stitch in the perfect form rectangle at the top of the earrings. Bring the thread back down to the beginning, pull off the stop bead and tie the ends together.
