starstarstarstarstar		 Two Gemstone Chip Earring Ideas

You can stack them on a headpin, turn a loop in the top and put them on an earwire.

Another way is to string them on beading thread.

Start with one end strung through a clam or beading tip, string on the chips, put the thread through the bottom of the tip.
