How to make Stainless Steel Earrings with Gemstone Chips
You can easily make these long stud earrings yourself! Because of our wide range of gemstone chips, there are many more color combinations possible.
Start by cutting 13 links and one piece of 26 links. Do this again so that both earrings are the same length. Thread four to five gemstone chips onto a head pin and cut a piece off (leaving about 1cm). Turn an eye at the top. Open the eyelet and attach the short link to it. Close the eyelet and attach a 4mm jumpring to the other end of the link piece. Now attach the whole thing to the stud earring. For the long link piece you do the same as described above, only now you can choose to use a little more gemstone chips and first turn an eye on the staple and then cut off the blunt piece. Again, leave about 1cm to turn an eyelet. Attach the link piece to 1 end and a lightning or moon charm to the other eyelet. Open a 4mm jumpring and hook the link piece to it. Now attach the whole thing to the back of the earring. Repeat the steps again and your pair of earrings are ready!
