The Earring Club – March 2018 Design

This month’s earring style is so, so cool with casual clothes, they are not just for party time. So put on your go-to jumper, jeans and your favourite boots, and rock these babies! You can of course also team them with your best party outfit for some added glam. The perfect party earrings!

This is the most ambitious design to date in the Earring Club, and I had a lot of fun making them! The dangly chandelier style earrings are entirely handmade from scratch by yours truly.

How they were made

I thought it would be fun to show you a few shots of the work in progress on these earrings, so here we go. This is how they were made:

I start with silver wire, cut into set size pieces, melt into balls and hammer, make all the little rings, and then solder all the little dangles together. Finally, the chandeliers are bent into shape and hammered, the dangles added and then I give them a gunmetal patina which gives them the slightly industrial and edgy look.

Small sections of wire are melted into balls and made into rings to make up the various shaped dangles and coonnectors.

All the little dangles for ONE earring finished and ready for assembly.

The chandelier components all made up and ready to take the little dangles.

Some of the components ready to assemble and finish!

And here is of course, the finished article! The finished earrings measure approximately 57 mm long from top of ear wires to bottom of longest dangle. They are approximately 25 mm wide.
