Steps
- Cut the chain into four 1½” pieces and two ½” pieces and set aside.
- Using one 6748 14mm crystal Edelweiss pendant attach a 4mm round jump ring and attach to one ½” piece of chain. Using a small jump ring attach chain to the bottom of the Lotus finding.
- Using one ear wire slide on one 5328 4mm crystal bicone and make a simple loop. Attach one 1½” piece of chain to the ear wire and using one small oval jump ring attach the other side of the chain to the left side of the large petal on the Lotus finding. Repeat this for the other side of the earring.
- Repeat Steps 2-3 for the second earring.
