Attach one of the larger gold-filled jump rings to a Swarovski edelweiss pendant, and attach to a textured gold-filled link. Use another one of the larger gold-filled jump rings to attach the first jump ring to the bottom of an ear wire.

Place a light turquoise Swarovski bicone onto each gold-filled head pin.
Finish the top of each head pin with a wire wrapped loop (see Jewelry Basics 101).
Set your tassel pieces in order: short-medium-long-medium-short, and then use a small jump ring to attach each tassel piece to the bottom of a textured link.
Repeat for other earring. For an illustrated version of these instructions, see Tiffany's blog article.
