I'm really loving them! I wanted to share how to make them, but I knew the wrap looped headpin was a technique to stand alone. Thus the first post. There's another technique I'll be showing today, but it is kinda similar to the wrap looped headpin so you'll catch on quickly!
Tools:
round nose pliers
regular pliers
wire cutters
Supplies:
Set of fish hook earrings
Headpins (32)
Eyepins (2)
Eyepins (2)
Jump rings (16)
3 different beads. I used a green teardrop bead (2), a smaller silver circular (16), and a larger green circular bead (16)
The first step is also the new technique. It's not very....pretty. But it doesn't matter because it works and it's hidden! If you are looking for something prettier, try Rebecca from My Girlish Whim's tutorial on How to Wire Wrap a Pendant
Repeat on your other tear drop bead.
Wrap all the rest of your beads (total should be 32) using the Wrap Looped Headpin Tutorial. The rest is just threading and closing.
