Chandelier-earring-parts are already made metal frames which allow anyone to make earrings very easily and quickly. These frames come in any type of finishes from gold to craft metal.

Here are three design ideas made with gemstones and other types of beads.
Pick up chandelier-earring-parts, nice beads and you are almost done…!
Yes, you're almost done!
All you need really is to work on a bead pattern, decide if you will have one or more rows and add bead dangles using the eye loop technique.

The eye loop technique is explained in details here.
A video, especially "Eye Loop or Simple Loop", shows how to turn you wrist when making a loop.
Hopefully it will help you because making a simple loop is for sure a simple technique but requires some practice.

As it is explained below, you can make your own earwires and match it to the earring itself. It is easy to do and thus you can coordinate it to the frame.

Few ideas among the big variety of the chandelier-earring-parts.

• the first one has a drop shape and is made with a mix of beads in autumnal shades.
• The second one has a round shape made with pink and earthy colors.
  Rose quartz symbolizes love and they were made for a young girl.
• The last one has an open round shape.
  We have added a chain, beads and charms for colorful summery earrings.
• Here is another idea to make a pendant with an earring-part:
  Pick up a big round frame, this one is in copper. Attach a bead dangle (glass) in the small center loop and string tags (Swarovski green flat cabochon are glued on them) and a charm ( a leaf for example). This easy to wear pendant is attached with a black cord. It was made during the summer 2008 when green was so trendy. Of course you can do it with any color!

It is rewarding to make these types of earrings because they are easy, quick, simple and very impressive . Instant gratification!, perfect for beginner, home parties or for small series making!
