          Tahitian DeLite Earrings Tutorial

          Created by: Polly Nobbs-LaRue

          Designer Tips
          • Carefully set prongs over the stones using flat-nose pliers. (Nylon jaw pliers can help prevent chipping or scratching.) For step-by-step instructions, see link at bottom of tutorial.
          • On each 2" head pin, add a tiny bead cap, 4mm pearl, tiny metal bead, 6mm pearl, tiny metal bead, 8mm pearl and another metal spacer. Some of the metal spacers have holes too small - set aside for another project. (Or use a thinner head pin; I prefer the sturdiness of thicker head pins.)
          • Use one-step looper to form nice consistent loops on each head pin.
          • Use round-nose pliers to tighten/re-shape head pin loops and bottom loop of setting before connecting.
          • Slightly twist loop at bottom of ear wire sideways, add setting, and close securely.
          • See Jewelry Basics 101 below for step-by-step instructions on securely opening and closing loops.
