Cut a 3" length of Artistic Wire Mesh, open it into its tube shape and pass an eye pin through the tube.
Twist the mesh ends around the eye pin and cover each end with a crimp cover. Add a second crimp cover to one end.
Pull the sides of the mesh away from each other to create a ruffled look.
Attach the end with the single crimp cover to the ear wire.
Cut five 1-1/2" lengths of chain and attach them to an eye pin loop.
Pass the eye pin through the wide end of a beading cone and make a basic loop.
Connect the two eye pins together as shown inside a large-hole bead*.
Repeat Steps 1-7 to make a matching earring.
*To make one beaded cylinder, you'll need: .013" diameter bright Beadalon 49, 25 jet 4mm round SWAROVSKI ELEMENTS and Beadalon bead stringing glue.
Cut a 18" length of beading wire.
Center the beading wire through a crystal.
Pass each end through another crystal, then cross the wires through opposite ends of a fourth crystal to complete the first stitch.
Make five more complete stitches, passing the wires through opposite ends of the original bead to form a beaded ring.
Pass the wire ends around the last stitch so you can add another row.
Knot the ends together.
