This pair of earrings and necklace to match is a fun accent to any outfit! It took a little longer to make, because the large seed beads are strung all the way around the necklace, as well as the extra part attaching the medallion, but it is a nice creation in the end! Add your own colors and styles to fit your personality (and wardrobe).

add a nice touch
I bought the chain in a set, but cut it to size and attached the beads to each end. You only need two small chains (not the same lengths) for each earring, and the length depends on how long you want the earrings to be. Connect bead to each end of both chains (do this for EACH earring) then attach fish hook in middle of chain. And there you have it.

not too fancy, not too plain
I already had the hoops but they were kind of boring, so I thought I'd spice things up a bit. They were a little tricky to make, but not too hard. Just wrap wire around the top of the hoop (on one side of the clasp) to hold it in place - probably about twice is good enough, then as you twist it around the hoop, add beads. You can adjust the beads in various places, but make sure to tightly wrap the wire around the hoop so the beads stay in place. When you get to the end, wrap the end of the wire around the other side of the clasp and cut extra off.
simple and nice
Small, simple, easy-to-make earrings that go with casual or nice outfits. Take some wire and make a circle out of one end, put tiny seed bead, regular bead of choice, followed by another seed bead. Repeat, only this time using a different sized regular bead (if you want). Then connect the two, put a fish hook on there and you've made a pair of simple but pretty earrings :)

These are some fun, easy to make earrings that go with many different outfits.
To make: Connect small circle findings to make the chain (you will need 13 connectors for these earrings), then on every other one add the bead (can be almost any bead, although for some you may need to add connectors). The easiest way to make these is to make the chain, then connect it to the fish hook so you can have something to hold while attaching the beads.
