How To: Make your own silver wire wrap earrings

In order to make your own silver wire wrap earrings, you will need the following: sterling 20-gauge wire, chain nose or small round nose pliers, fine sterling wire, and multicolored crystal beads. Cut a 6-inch piece of wire. Use the pliers to make a loop on one end. Make a hook on the other. Shape the wire and make sure that the ends meet. Place the crystal beads on a thin flexible sterling wire. String the beads in the order that you want them on the hoop. Next, begin wrapping the wire around one end of the hoop. After wrapping it several times, alternate wrapping and adding beads, until you reach the end. Then, wrap it several times at the end to close. Clip off the excess.
