Half of the work is done for you when it comes to these dangly earrings. Just add the pearls and crystals to the fancy chain.
When you want to make a bold statement, use these geometric dangling earrings. The dark gunmetal chain and deep red crystal pearls create a dramatic palette perfect for late night events.
Cut the gunmetal-plated square links on round cable chain into one 6-inch long piece using side cutters.
Thread a 3mm round pearl in Bordeaux onto a TierraCast® 2-inch gauge black finish pewter head pin. Repeat this process for nine more 3mm pearls, ten 4mm round pearls in Bordeaux, ten 3mm faceted rounds in Crystal AB and eight 4mm faceted rounds in Crystal AB. Use wrapped loops to attach all of your beaded head pins to your chain in a random fashion.
Fold your chain in half and connect your two ends together using a 5mm gunmetal-plated 18 gauge open jump ring. Attach the folded end to a gunmetal-plated earwire with ball and coil using chain nose pliers.
