Guess what inspired these cherry earrings!  Such fun to wear, light as air and so easy to make.

Step

Use 18.5 micron Superfine Merino wool to make the felted beads in a size to suit, about a 1/2 inch diameter works well.

Step 2

Tie a firm knot in one end of a length of waxed cord, thread on one bead, then pass cord through the earwire loop.

Step 3

Tie a loose knot and add the second bead and then tie off with another loose knot.

TIP: Do not firmly tie the last two knots until the earrings are equal in length.

I'm Christine Gierer and I'm obsessed with making jewelry and teaching others how to do it too. I've been a creative person all my life, and I've done all kinds of things like art, sociology, and counseling. But nothing makes me happier than playing with beads, wires, and tools and sharing my tips and tricks with you. I have two awesome websites where you can find tons of tutorials, courses, and workshops on how to make jewelry and how to sell it online.
