To make these duster earrings, I made bead links with tiny crystals and attached them to the bottoms of pieces of chain. I love the dramatic effect of these earrings, especially if you make them a longer length.

Supplies you’ll need:

  • Stainless Steel Small Cable Chain (3')
  • Headpins
  • Hematite Crystal Faceted Rondelle 2mm (2 Strands)
  • 3mm Silver Jump Rings
  • Silver Earwire

Step-by-Step Instructions:

Step

Step 1

Cut the chain into 20 pieces (10 pieces per earring) of various sizes ranging from 1.5"-2" (longer or shorter depending on the length you want the earrings). String the crystal onto the headpins-varying amounts on some of them- and attach directly to the chain.

Step

Step 2

Cut the end off of a headpin and make a loop with round nose pliers on one end, slide the 10 pieces of chain on, and make a loop on the other end.

Step

Step 3

Using pliers, bend the loops together and attach them with a jump ring.

Step

Step 4

Attach the jump ring to an earwire.
