Step by step instructions
Prepare the Devcon Epoxy Glue by mixing in a small dish. Use a fine point such as a cocktail stick to dab a bit of glue onto the cap of the peg and gently place it in the half-drilled hole in the cultured freshwater pearl.
Once mixed, the glue sets in 5 minutes, so ensure you set your pearl straight away.
Gently place it down and leave it to set.
Once set, using a pair of snipe or flat nose pliers, gently twist the loop in the earwires open and hang your peg with loop from the loop in the earwire then close the earwire securely.
There you have it, beautiful classic pearl drop earrings made in just a few minutes!
