Pendulum Pair – day 177
Another easy breezy pair of earrings. This is a great way to display those special beads you made and you only need two! They look so pretty hanging from your ears, swinging back and forth, back and forth………
How To: Take an eye pin the length of your bead. For this pair I use a one inch eye pin, put your paper bead and do another simple loop on the other end. Open the loops and attached you chain. The whole process takes 5 minutes.
Corkscrew Earrings – day 176
Earrings are quick and simple to do and they fit everybody 🙂 If you just take one day and make a few pairs you have basically taken care of some ladies on your Christmas list.
I used 20 gauge non tarnish craft wire, did a spiral at the bottom, coiled it around a mandrel and added the small round paper beads. I put a dab of gs hypo cement to hold the paper beads in place and voila!
Double Bicone Earrings – day 175
There is beauty in simplicity, and this is what I absolutely love about this earrings! What a way to display the swirls of magazine color. The double bicone bead is made from stacking several strips of paper, depending on how big you want your bead to be.

Twister Earrings Giveaway – day 174
Cone shaped paper beads are wire wrapped to look like “twisters”! I had fun making these earrings because they are so simple to do.
I left the bottom part with the loops for your imagination to take flight! What would you like to hang in those loops? I am giving away a pair for those who will leave me a comment 🙂 It will come package like you see it here.
Bead Compote Ring – day 173
If you have some special beads that you want to admire and see all the time, setting them in resin like what I did with the paper bead mix ring. You take a store bought bottle cap ring finding or any bezel cup finding and set a mixture of beads using resin.
This is something easy and quick to do, great for bazaars!
