Quick Project Steps

Mermaid glass makes the perfect center for these Under The Sea Earrings. With just a few supplies and a little time you can be dreaming of summer days at the beach as you simply stitch together these sweet little shell shaped earrings.
Using about four feet of .006 thread and a size 10 needle, pick up the mermaid bead and hold on to it near the end of the thread. Thread on an 8/0 and go back through the mermaid bead. Pick up another 8/0 and sew back through the mermaid bead in the other direction. Go back through the first 8/0 and back through the mermaid glass and tie the thread ends into a knot.
Watch the Under the Sea earrings tutorial and Allie will show you how to weave the seed beads together to form the shell shape.
Attach the wire guard to the top of the earring, bring the thread back down through the seed beads and bring the thread to the opposite side. Tie the ends together and cut. Burn off the extra thread ends with a Thread Zap. Add the earwire of your choice.
Do you love the ocean? The sights, the sounds, the smells? If you can't get to the beach as often as you'd like, why not bring the beach to you with these charming under the sea earrings? These earrings are appropriate for any beading skill level and are a great way to use up some of those seed beads you have lying around. Plus, they make a great gift for that special someone who loves the ocean as much as you do!
