Natali Earrings Tutorial

Created by: Summer Melaas

Natali is a simple, sweet pair of earrings featuring lotus flower beads from TierraCast, as well as matching antiqued brass spike charms and Niobium ear wires. Add a subtle flash with Czech faceted micro spacer beads, and wrap it all together with Artistic Wire.

Designer Tips

• For wire wrap tutorial, see Jewelry Basics 101 (PDF)
• Make a wrapped loop; add a micro spacer bead and a lotus bead. Make a wrapped loop. Attach French hook to  the loop above the micro spacer bead.
• Make two more links, each with just one micro spacer bead.
• For your last link, make a loop for your ethnic spike; wrap it. Above the loop, add a micro spacer bead, then wrap this assembly to the other micro spacer beads already linked together.
• Repeat for other side.
