Step 1
Thread the beads and pearls in the right order onto the headpin
The gold-plated headpin is going to form the body of the earring, with the flat head preventing the pearls from sliding off the bottom. Thread the beads and pearls onto the headpin, starting with the 5601, then the 5000, then the three pearls starting with the largest and finally the 5328 on the end. The sequence of beads should look something like this:
Step 2
Secure the pearls and create a loop
Use Chain Nose Pliers to bend the head pin at a right angle just above the 5328 bead, this will stop the beads and pearls from sliding off the pin. Then use Round Nose Pliers to loop the headpin back on itself into a small circle and cut off the rest of the wire with Side Cutters, giving you a closed loop similar to a jump ring. This on its own, is essentially a pendant and at this point it could be attached to earrings or onto a chain to become a necklace.
Step 3
Attach the ear wire
Using a combination of the round nose and chain nose pliers, gently twist open the loop at the bottom of the Fishhook Ear wire, then thread the pendant onto the opened loop. Be sure to always twist the loops open and closed and never pull them open as that will make the loop more likely to break in the future.
Step 4
Create a matching pair
Repeat steps 1 to 3 to create the second Christmas Tree Swarovski Pearl earring and complete the set.
