Supplies Needed To Make DIY Diamond Earrings
Here are the tools you will need to complete the project:
- Cutting pliers
- Round nose pliers
- Flat jaws pliers (not indispensable)
The material required is this:
Method
Step 1 First, cut a length of 3 inches of silver wire with the cutting pliers.
Step 2 Then use the round nose pliers to make a loop at one end of the silver wire, and twist the wire around with the flat jaws pliers.
Step 3 Mount the beads (silver and diamonds) on the silver wire, starting with a larger cubic diamond (mine is a yellow). You can then alternate diamond beads (mine are pink) and silver beads as you wish to make your own design.
Step 4 Then make a new loop at the end of the silver wire and twist the wire, and cut the excess of wire.
Step 5 Now you can join this piece with the silver shepherd hook, which hook you have to close with the help of the flat jaws pliers and round nose pliers.
Step 6 Repeat the process and you are ready to wear your new diamond earrings.
