1. Thread a needle onto one end of your piece of fire line. The one piece will do both
beaded beads. Pick up four 6mm rounds and let them fall leaving a short tail. Tie the tail
and working thread together into a couple of good knots. Go through one 6mm next to
the knot.

2. Pick up one 11/0, one 4mm, one 8/0, one 4mm, and one 11/0. Go back through the
6mm you are exiting to make a circle of beads that will lay atop the 6mm.
3. Go up through the first 11/0 and 4mm just added.

4. Pick up one 8/0, one 4mm, and one 11/0. Go to the next 6mm and come back through
it going back towards the beads just added.
5. Go up through the 11/0 and 4mm right above where your thread is exiting and then on
through the beads just added and the next 6mm.

6. Pick up one 11/0, one 4mm, and one 8/0. Go down through the 4mm and 11/0
previously added and then on through the 6mm, 11/0 and 4mm just added.

7. Pick up one 8/0 and go down through the first 4mm added in the top embellishment.
You should now have 4 bicones and four 8/0s on top of the base 6mm’s.
8. Stitch through the beads to exit an 8/0 in the top center. Go back through the four 8/0s
several times to reinforce the join.
9. Stitch through your beads to exit a 6mm along the outer edge.

10. Repeat steps 2-9 for the second side.

11. Pick up three 11/0s and go through the next 6mm. Repeat three more times.
12. Tie off your thread with a couple of half hitch knots and trim the tails.
13. On a headpin thread on one 4mm, your beaded bead, and one 4mm.

14. Start making a wrapped loop but before you do the wrap thread on your desired length
of chain. Finish the wrapped loop and trim the tail.

15. Attach ear hook to other end of chain.


16. Repeat steps 1-15 for the second earring.
