Gather Materials:
8/0 seed beads. Delica beads for detailing. Dragon Thread (size 8) with a size 10 needle. Briolette drops for embellishment. Wire guard and ear wires.
Create the Base Circle:
String three 8/0 seed beads and tie them into a circle. Leave a tail for tying off later.
Start Herringbone Stitch:
Add two 8/0 seed beads and pass through the next base bead. Repeat around the circle to form the first row.
Build the Triangle:
Continue adding rows using herringbone stitch to create the triangle’s sides.
Add Peyote Embellishments:
Insert Delica beads between herringbone rows for a layered effect. Alternate herringbone and peyote rows as you build the triangle.
Attach Briolette Drops:
Add briolette drops at the bottom corners of the triangle. Use Delica beads as spacers for balance.
Secure the Wire Guard:
Add a wire guard at the top of the triangle to protect the thread. Loop through beads multiple times to reinforce.
Attach the Ear Wire:
Securely attach the ear wire to the wire guard. Ensure the earring hangs evenly.
Finish and Customize:
Tie off threads securely and trim the excess. Experiment with different colors, bead sizes, or additional embellishments.
