STEP BY STEP INSTRUCTIONS
1. Cut a length of wire about 10-15cm in length to start wire wrapping your bead.
2. Form a loop with a pair of round nose pliers and twist the were around to fix the loop in place. You will need to snip off any excess wire with side cutters and squeeze the end of the wire for a neat finish.
3. Thread the amethyst bead onto the wire and start to form another loop.
4. Wrap the wire around the loop to secure it in place and trim away any excess wire.
5. Open a 3.5mm jump ring with a pair of snipe nose and flat nose pliers and attach one end of the beaded wire by the loop and add the feather charm by the loop at the top before closing the jump ring again.
6. Open another 3.5mm jump ring and attach the opposite end of the beaded wire by the lop and add the earwire by the iris flower loop. Close the jump ring.
7.Repeat all previous steps to complete the other earring.
