How to Make Your Own Swarovski Crystal Beads Earri

Can there be anything as beautiful as a pair of earrings emblazoned with Swarovski Crystal Beads? Swarovski is the most recognized name in beautiful works of crystal. It was inevitable that stunning faceted crystal beads would become high-style jewelry. The shimmer of Swarovski crystal beads in earrings are perfect for formal or casual wear. Now, it's possible to buy Swarovski crystal beads where ever beads are sold for those who want to make their own Swarovski crystal beads earrings.
What You'll Need:
Depending on the type of earrings you plan to make, pierced or clip on earrings, you can find the basics in most any craft store. Another suggestions is to take a good look at the earrings you already own and see if there are any that have gold or silver lever backs, hook wires or studs that can be updated with Swarovski crystal beads. These have the advantage of a head start to creating a new pair of earrings with all the glitter of Swarovski crystals.

You might also want to invest in a pair of jewelers pliers, glue, wire and jewelry string. Once you start to make your own Swarovski Crystal beads earrings, you'll be so thrilled with the initial results that it just might become a hobby. The great thing about Swarovski Crystal beads is that there is now available a wonderful array of these beads in colors and shapes with which to create custom earrings no one but you will own.
Plan Your Designs:
It's important to plan the designs for your earrings before you attempt to make your first pair. You can paste Swarovski crystal beads to stud earring findings with jeweler's glue. Or, you can begin by adding several beads to ear wires in contrasting hues. Some craft stores even provide pre-cast settings that only require the addition of a bit of adhesive before adding the crystal beads.
Most of the findings for lever back earrings for pierced ears have tiny open loops at the front so you can just add a small string of crystal beads to this. It's also possible to string beads and add a small bead cap and a jump ring (a small ring with an opening). Then, just attached it to the loop in the earring. This makes a wonderful beaded dangling earring effect. You can also use gold or silver craft wire to create small strings of beads. Twist the wire for a completely different earring design. Bead caps are a great way to accent a particular style. They are available in Cloisonne, pewter, gold, silver or copper as well as Swarovski's own bead cap.
Simple Designs Using Swarovski Crystal Beads:
One of the simplest designs that looks absolutely stunning is a single Swarovski crystal bead hanging from a silver or gold chain that attaches to a hook, clip on or lever back earring. This is where a broken necklace with a gold chain can become part of your new Swarovski crystal beads earrings.
