DIY Fine Rocks Wire Earrings

Today’s tutorial features one of our newer products 55mm Swarovski® Ultra Fine Rocks Tube beads. These Ultra Fine Rocks are longer in length and thinner than our usual Fine Rocks Tube. Plus, they are also a little more pliable to wrap around memory wire, which is what we’ve done in our earrings tutorial!

• 55mm Ultra Fine Rocks Tube – Item used in earrings SW02358 (2)
• Memory Wire – WR00126 (Silver Option WR00127)
• 4mm Gold Jump Ring – A011517 (Silver Option A002413)

Directions: (Visual tutorial on Hoop Earrings Tutorial)

1. Cut two coils of memory wire. While holding both coils of memory wire together, cut off an extra inch of memory wire end.
2. Make a simple loop on one memory wire end by rolling memory wire finishing pliers and making a loop outwards and perpendicular away from the memory wire.
3. Slide nugget spacers on the memory wire. Curl the fine rocks tube to create a curved piece while sliding it on the memory wire. And then slide on another nugget spacer.
4. Slide the other memory wire end through loop you made in Step 2.
5. Grasp that end with Memory Wire Finishing pliers.
6. Roll loop towards you to make a simple loop. Use crimper to help close the loop tighter.
7. Add your ear wire and repeat all steps for other earring.
