Pattern Description:

This tutorial will show you how to make three different kinds of fairy wings earrings in liquid polymer clay.

In the list of materials, the numbers in parentheses indicates for which model of earrings the material is necessary. If there is no number, it means that the material is necessary for the 3 models.

I will explain how to make the first model from A to Z. For other models, I explain the main steps, since the sub-steps have already explained for the first model.

You should know the basics of wirework, as how to do spirals. If you never used the liquid polymer clay, this isn't a problem because this tutorial tells you everything there is to know to make these jewels.
