wow this is amazing. do u have any ideas on what style i should do from a wedding?

[Hollistergirl1O1]

Thanks. You could try using some more fancy beads like bicone swarovski crystal beads. They have a really sparkly look because it's faceted and cut in many angles. Or try some fake pearls or glass beads. There a million different options you can try. Hope this helps. :))

@legendarymario3 My earrings sway and I'm not a company...

You just need to use eye pins and layer them properly... Like I said in the other post, you just add some beads to one piece and make loops on either side and then finish off the end with a headpin and another bead or so... then you add a loop to the headpin to it under the other beads. Viola, movement.

My paper bead earring tutorial has great movement, I haven't done the paper bead earrings yet but they too move a lot.

@BeyondBracelets When you make earrings, they won't sway unless you know how to make them. Which only earring companies know how to really...

[BeyondBracelets]

They look WAY too stiff! Earrings should sway.

Anyone making this should try stringing one (or three) nice beads onto a headpin, then clip it and make a loop. Use an Eyepin and then string some more beads- cut and make another loop.

Attach the smaller set of beads underneath the larger set- since the headpin is on the bottom it will finish the bottom- attach to a fish hook and then it will sway and not look dead.

*Eye pins have an "eye" loop.

*Head pins have a flat base that stops the beads.
