Dangle Earring Lesson
You can create a very functional earring top using two lace edge settings glued together back to back to make a setting with attachment loops.
Gently fold the lace edges of the back setting flat for the background. Next add a cabochon or cameo.
Using headpins, connectors, jump rings and a few vintage beads you can create a small yet dramatic dangle earring. These are only three inches long including the lever back hoop.
The items in picture number three were all used to make this earring. The long narrow filigree connector was folded over to create the bail hoop on the outside edges and then a larger 5mm jumping was used to add the small bead. Don't hesitate to use more than one item from one jumping as in the center of these strands.
I used three links of chain to create a centered loop at the top for the lever back earring finding, but you could just as easily add a post back or a clip back to these.
