Start with a stop bead on the end of about 3' of thread. Follow along with Allie in the Aphrodite Earring tutorial as she shows you how easy this freeform technique is.
When attaching the earwire it is recommended to open up the loop to the side rather than opening it up straight to keep the shape.
