Materials

Filigree caps (with holes around the circumference; one with a diameter of about 12 mm – 2x; the second with a diameter of about 8 mm – 2x); a 12 mm eye pin; 50 mm, 60 mm and 70 mm eye pins or a 0.80 mm wire; small ovals; earring hooks

Tools

Needle-nosed pliers; flat-nosed pliers; snipping pliers

Procedure

Linking

You will need about 8 to 10 mm of wire to twist the wire around the point of the pliers, depending on how big the point is. Shorten the protruding section of the wire for the second eye. Grasp the protruding wire between the points of the needle-nosed pliers. Twist it around the points. This will create an eye. Gently twist the eye back. It will be located centrally above the hole of the T.

You can hang a larger or smaller number of pendants on the caps you have chosen depending on the number of holes around the circumference. The ovals will help resolve any eventual distances between the loops and the eye pins.

Step 1

Earrings

Hang ovals on the larger cap. Open them, thread them through a hole and close them using the flat nose pliers.
