Step 1

For the center dangle, thread five Amazonite beads, with a Gold rondelle in between, onto a headpin.

Step 2

Above the last bead, bend the wire to a 90° angle. Grasp the wire at about ½" from the bend with round nose pliers and make a simple loop. Trim the excess wire.

Step 3

For two dangles on either side of the center, thread four Amazonite beads, with a Gold rondelle in between, onto a headpin. Repeat Step 2 to finish.

Step 4

For two dangles on the outside, thread three Amazonite beads, with a Gold rondelle in between, onto a headpin. Repeat Step 2 to finish.

Step 5

Carefully open each loop at the top of the dangles, just enough to slide onto the loops across a spacer bar. Close the loops.
TIP: Use the image as a guide.

Step 6

Carefully open the loop at the bottom of a fishhook earring, slide it through the loop at the top of the spacer bar and close the loop.

Step 7

Repeat Steps 1-6 for a second earring.
