Teal Swarovski Crystal & Wire Earrings

Is this your project? Can you share instructions or a pattern with the Craftsy community?

Difficulty:

Category: Jewelry

Type of item: Accessory

For: Women

Style: Whimsical, Funky


Materials

I made these earrings with Blue Zircon (a bluish teal color) Swarovski crystal bicone beads, and teal-colored copper wire. I chose gunmetal finished headpins and earring findings to evoke an elegant heirloom feel.

What was your inspiration?

The bright, beautiful crystal beads found their perfect color match in the colored copper wire. Together they called to me..."join us to create a twinkling teal masterpiece!" How could I resist their call?

What are you most proud of?

Finding a spot-on color match in the beads and wire!

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

Wrap the wire carefully.
