Bead Hoops make Pretty Earrings

silver bead hoops Cute & pretty hoop earrings with bead dangles.
We have larger sterling hoops with loops on our Toolbox page ($17.99 a pair).
cascade ear All you need to make these dramatic cascade earrings is a short piece of open chain, some headpins, and beads.
We made this earring with fancy jasper flat ovals and fancy jasper rectangle shapes.
These soft colors would enhance any outfit, and there is actually enough here for both earrings (just cut the chain in the middle).

Easy Earring Style

hooplike earring with beads
The earrings pictured above have "hoops" of green jade and crystal beads surrounding a bronze charm in an oval shape. This is an easy style to make using wire to string the beads and then bending it into a circle around a form such as a dowel or other tube shape.

Art Nouveau Inspired Necklace or Bracelet

neck with bone butterfly






We combined carved bone butterfly beads with gemstone scarabs and some moonstone rondels in this lovely necklace or bracelet design.



Turquoise, Carnelian, and Silver Necklace

multistrand necklace







This stunning piece contains some large silvertone beads that we no longer have, but you could still make it with some of our sterling or 50/silver beads.
The turquoise and carnelian are traditional partners for jewelry.
There is some double strung stations which are easy to make if you string with doubled cord.
