Tired of seeing the same ol' French ear wires on everything? For a different look, string beads directly onto these jumbo ear wires. To add large beads such as these angels, you need to straighten the ear wire (and re-form it around a mandrel or pen when done), but if you add simple dashes of color with "E" beads and large seed beads, then no bending is required.
