This worskhop teaches how to make a simple,
but very beautiful, pair of earrings. They are
called “Rosebud” earrings because, with the
briolette beads, they look like upside down
rosebuds.
You will make a pair of earrings that are 1 1/2” long from
the top of the loop to the bottom of the briolette
bead. Total length will depend on the style of ear
wire you choose.

Materials:
· two 4” pieces of 20g round wire (dead soft or
half hard)
· Approximately 8 feet of 28g round dead soft
wire ( you could use 26g)
· 2 briolette beads (approximately
8mmx10mm, top drilled) Briolettes are tear dropped shaped stones. Bs sure to get the correct size stone and make sure they are top drilled.
· 2 ear wires
Tools:
· Wire Cutters
· Round Nose Pliers
· Flat Nose Pliers
· Needle File

Please be on time; This workshop is step-by-step instructions. Arrive early to get settled. Class will start on time and if you're late you have to play catch up.
