Whether you are looking to make a statement or add a pop of color to your outfit, these Mosaic Tile earrings are sure to do the trick! With just a few materials from PotomacBeads, you can create your own pair in no time.
Using a size 12 needle, put a stop bead onto about an arm-span long piece of thread. Thread on a quadbow from the inside to the outside. Add a seed bead and add another quadbow but this time thread it from the outside to the inside. Bring the needle through the second hole and then step up again and bring the needle back to the outside of the project. Put on a pieduo and two 15/0s, and 11/0 and two more 15/0s. Thread back through the pieduo and the middle of the quadbow to nestle it into the middle.
Add another combination of quadbow, pieduo and seed beads. This will complete the second corner of the tile. Finish off the other corners.

These Mosaic Tile earrings are a pleasure to make and don't take too much time either. They would make a beautiful gift for any jewelry lover. The bezeled chaton in the center really shimmers and shines in the light. The earrings are very lightweight and comfortable to wear.
