Ear Cuff

Why not make something creative with your usual boring moment. Do you see buying new set of accessories way too expensive!?

Start to make a tour around your house. Discover what your father's garage has to offer.

Thinking of a new pair of earrings and you want to make it hip? Create one with your own fine designs.

You will be needing

• 2-1/2 inches nylon line
• 2 crimp beads
• Silvertone ear cuff with hole on side
• 2 hematite star beads
• Silvertone twist tube

Tools:

• Needle-nose pliers
• Scissors

Begin with stringing a crimp bead onto the nylon line, then thread the nylon line through the hole in the ear cuff. Pull the line back through the crimp bead so the short end just clears the crimp bead. Crimp down. The ear cuff is now attached to the nylon line. Trim the excess short line, leaving one line remaining. After that string a star bead, the twist tube, and the other star bead onto the line.

Lastly string the other crimp bead on the nylon line. Slide all the beads down, leaving 1/2 inch of nylon line between the ear cuff and the first star, and crimp down. Trim the excess line.

Now you know the reason why not to ignore your father's stuff, it could be your source of a fine jewelry.
