Disco Stiletto - Threader Earrings
As seen in the Rings & Things 2010 Super Supplement
Created by: Polly Nobbs-LaRue

This design is made with CRYSTALLIZED™ – Swarovski Elements.

2 #05-005-12-160 CRYSTALLIZED™ 12mm round crystals with geometric faceting (chessboard), crystal/silver shade
1 pr #53-503-3 3" ear threads with cone, sterling silver
2 #24-980-33 3x3mm bamboo-shaped tube SmartBeads with BPS™ (Bead Positioning System), sterling silver

Tools: No tools needed! Ear threads (threaders) are a quick way to make linear earrings! Simply slide on the desired beads.

TIP: Use SmartBeads as earring nuts, to keep ear threads hanging at the exact length you want. This works on the ear, or on a display. Each SmartBead has a Bead Positioning System (BPS), a gripping rubber gasket inside that allows the bead to be positioned and repositioned.
