Coiled wire circles with lampwork beads. In the Summer Preview 2008 issue of Step by Step Wire Jewelry you learned how to make the Round in Circles bracelet. Here you can learn to make Nicola Ryan's earrings to match. Note: Step 8 was missing a sentence at the end of the paragraph. If you downloaded this project before May 1st, here is the missing information: Connect the eyepins with a jump ring.

These three sets of simple earrings show you just how different beads from the same pink-and-khaki lampwork set can look. A great beginner project--you just need to know basic wireworking (simple loops and coils), stringing, and crimping to create these earrings.

Make this fun set of mismatched earrings to wear with the Baubles Bracelet on page 32 of the May June 08 issue of Step by Step Beads.

Combining seed beads, crystal marguerites, fine chain, and a cubic zirconia drop and earring finding, this earring design is simply stunning. Its base is made with right-angle weave; the flower with layered picots.

Use right angle weave (RAW), to create these geometric, seed bead earrings. Instructions for the matching necklace may be found in the May/June 2007 issue of Step by Step Beads.

Karen was inspired to make these sweet, feminine earrings after watching a documentary on Princess Diana. While Diana’s beauty and style were royally classic, she always had a whimsical look in her eyes and a genuine smile. This project is from Beadwork magazine.

After making dozens of the Montée Magic bracelets (featured in Beadwork, February/March 2008), Katherine realized no ordinary pair of earrings coordinated like she had anticipated. What better way to bring them together than to use the same ring pattern of the bracelet? Using a head pin keeps the shape straight and makes this simple crystal earring quick and easy to finish. Instructions are given for two variations of these party-worthy earrings.

These unusual wire earrings combine traditional jewelry materials (silver and tanzanite Swarovski crystals) with slightly edgy materials (rubber O-rings). This easy earring project is from the editors of Step by Step Wire Jewelry.

The earring is worn by actually winding the spiraled part of the wire through the ear, making them easy to wear, but next to impossible to lose! The name of the project comes from the fact that a ballpoint pen is one of the tools used to make these earrings. While these earrings feature garnet rondelles, try using round beads, oval beads, stone chips, or don’t use any beads at all. A photo of this project appeared in Easy Wire magazine.

Practice making wire coils with this easy earring project by the editor of Beading Daily. The tools and supplies are minimal--silver ear wires, small silver round beads, colored craft wire, and a crochet hook to wrap the wire around. If you don’t own a crochet hook or knitting needle, use a narrow piece of metal, like a skewer (used for shish kabobs) or a plant stake.
