Five Minute Earrings

I really wanted to call these "Date Night Earrings", but when you have 4 kids, you don't go out on dates.  Anyway, they are so easy you can make them in Five Minutes - or just before you're going out.

These are for my sister-in-law.

You will need 2 Eye Pins.  2 Fish Hook Wires.  Needle Nose Pliers.  Something to cut the wire (I used my kitchen scissors).  Beads.  You can find these things at any craft store.  I am particularly fond of Hobby Lobby.

1. Thread Beads onto eye pin.

2. Bend wire at the bottom.

3. Cut

4. Twist wire end into a circle (or oval).  You just want to keep the beads from coming off.

5. Open eye and attach to the fish hook.  Pinch closed.

6.  Earring is done!  (These are to match my Mother-in-laws bracelet from yesterday)

So easy a two-year-old can do it!

 

This may be obvious, but if you are going to make a matching bracelet, earring set.  Make the earrings first, so you have the right beads to make a matching pair. (it wasn't immediately obvious to me)
