How to make

You start by making the individual parts, in these earrings these are the charms that you make yourself with a staple pen. The video below explains the best way to do this.

6x charm with apatite and gold bead

8x charm with gold bead

Then you can start assembling the earrings next. It is nice to work from top to bottom, which means that you first attach the earring hook to the diamond connector and the diamond charm. Then you can already hang the earring on something if you like it better.

Then you attach the homemade charms to the bottom of the connector, the large drop bead and triangle you attach with the large 8mm jumprings, making it hang down nicely. Then you attach a piece of jasseron chain to that same eyelet of the drop, underneath that you hang the diamond charm with an 8mm jumpring.

Then you attach to that piece of jasseron between the charms, the homemade charms with apatite, in the links. And finally you attach the last piece of jasseron chain to the 8mm jumpring of the diamond, which then hangs down. At the end of the piece of jasseron you attach the last homemade charm.
