String a TierraCast 3mm antiqued copper round onto a TierraCast copper 2-inch 21 gauge eye pin, followed by a TierraCast antique copper 4mm beaded bead cap, five Dakota Stones white lace red jasper 4mm round beads, another bead cap and another 3mm round. Finish the eye pin with a simple loop. Repeat for a total of two links.

String a 3mm round onto an eye pin, followed by a bead cap, three Dakota Stones white lace red jasper 8mm faceted roundel beads, another bead cap and another round. Make a simple loop on the end of the eye pin.

Open the loop on the end of one of the links you made in step one and attach it to the end of the link you made in step two. Close the loop. Attach the other link from step one to the other end of the link from step two in the same manner.

Connect the open ends of the two links together using a 6mm antique copper 18 gauge open jump ring. While the jump ring is still open, attach the antique copper-plated earring post with ring. Then, close the jump ring.

Repeat steps 1 through 4 to make the other earring.
