Materials: (1) Hoop Earring (to use as the base) 24g Soft Sterling Wire 6" Sterling Chain (1) Heart Bead (1) 2" Headpin Tools: Wirecutter Chain-nose or crimp pliers Round-nose pliers Step 1 - Cut the chain inyo two 1/2 " pieces, and cut the remaining 5" into four equal pieces. Step 2 - Place headpin through heart bead and create a wire wrapped loop capturing the two 1/2 pieces of chain in the loop, set aside. Step 3 - Create a loop in the center of the 24g wire and slide the four remaining pieces of chain into the loop. Step 4 - With the loop centered on the bootom of the hoop, gently wrap the wire around the hoop until each side is1/2" from the center of the top. Ispace the wraps about a 1/4" apart and don't worry about perfection, as this is a funky pendant and the imperfections are part of it's charm. Step 5 - Slide the ends of the chain onto each of wires and continue wrapping the hoop until you have reached the center. Step 6 - Make a loop on top and wrap the wire. Trim and tack end.
