I just took a 2.5 inch headpin and bent it to have 3 loopsone at the bottom a middle one and a third then strung the quartz and added the loop at the top of the quartz to hold the ear wire.

Where did you purchase the Quartz from? I love it and would be great for winter creations.

I got the ones in this photo at a local bead store here in Vegas but I know Fire Mt Gems.com has the round shape (ones in photo are rondelle) in a few different sizes, 8mm, 10mm, 12mm. If you dont want a full string and just a couple beads I sell them on my supply store. www.desertstarsupplies.artfire.com
