The Classic Teardrop is one of those earrings designs that are less. So it's neat that they're very simple to make, as I will be showing you in this class. After you know how to create the basic teardrop shape, I have three lovely variations to build on that design. I'll help you learn how to create the Beaded Pendulum, a Wrapped Top design, and a fun Beaded Wire-wrap.

In this class, you will learn how to

attach wire onto wire

continuously wrap wire onto a shape

tighten wire coils

add beads to wire

secure the end of the wire

create a loop centered at the top of a headpin

As you watch these videos, you will see what tools and materials you need for that specific design. Here is a complete overview of what you will need for this class.

The tools.

needle-nose pliers

flat-nose pliers

straightening or plastic-covered pliers

wire/flush cutters

a ruler

ring mandrel in size size #10 or a 3/4″ round object

The materials.

20 gauge wire

22 gauge wire in one or two colors

rocaille/seed beads in three colors

2 headpins

2 jump rings

2 gemstone chip beads or medium sized beads of your choice

ear wires or French hooks for each pair of earrings
