    Quick Project Steps

    Gather all materials and thread your needle with an arm's length of dragon thread, attaching a stop bead at the end. Start by creating a base with P Duos, adding seed beads and Round Duo Minis in a specific pattern to form the foundation of the earrings. Continue building the structure by adding layers and embellishments, including Tu Blitz and various sizes of seed beads, to enhance the design. Pay attention to the orientation of the beads and the overall shape as you work, ensuring symmetry and balance in the earring design. Once the main structure is complete, add a wire guard at the top for attaching the ear wire, securing it in place and ensuring the earring's durability. Finish by weaving back through the beads to reinforce the structure, tie off and burn down the thread ends, and attach the ear wire.
