list of materialsThis is the list of materials and tools necessary to make 2 earrings

• I've used oxidized copper to create this earrings, but it can be any other wire –brass, copper, silver or gold-filled.

• 40 cm (15,75’’) of 22 or 23 gauge wire (of 0,6 mm in diameter) cut into 2 even pieces.

• 12 cm (4,72”) of 28 or 29 gauge wire (of 0,3 mm in diameter) cut into 2 even pieces (to attache beads to the earrings).

*2 drop beads – size 9x6 mm*2 copper beads – size 3 mm*2 copper beads – size 2.5 mm*4 copper beads – size 2 mm*1 pair of earwires

!!!First of all check if your copper beads (size 3 mm and 2.5 mm) have a big enough holes for two 22\23 gauge wires. Not every beads have that!!!

without the pliers.
