How to Make Sapphire Dangle Earrings

 Begin by gathering your supplies and inserting your beads onto your pins. You can see above that I've already formed my loop on my large bead.

Next form a loop at the top of your curved spacers.

Using a jump ring attach your large bead to your earwire.

Attach your chain to the bottom of your bead with a jump ring. I added 5 links of the chain.

Attach a curved spacer piece to each link of the chain using a jump ring. Also, add one to the jump ring that attaches the chain to the earring.
Repeat to make your other earring.

I've been thinking of opening an Etsy shop. I'm going to be making a lot more jewelry than I'll ever be able to wear. Is there any interest? Would you be interested in purchasing this style earring? Of course I could make them in a variety of colors. I'd love to hear your thoughts and comments on this.

    1. It's been a long time since I made these, but I think the small ones are 4mm. The large ones I really don't know.
