Diy 5 Minute Earrings

Hi!
For this instructable, I will show you how I make great earrings with just a few supplies and within a few minutes:)
You can make so many different looks by changing the lengths, metal variations/, adding to the amount used, alternating choice of metals (ie; gold& silver) or the style of chain used. The possibilities are endless! These are also a good way to use up any left over scraps of chain from other projects.

• Earring hooks (2)

• Jump Rings (2)

• Chain of your choice (I'm using gold for these today see pic)

• Pliers (2)

• Wire Cutters/snips (1)

• Ruler/tape measure (1)

So the first thing to do is measure and cut all the chain needed for the project,

we will need 5 pcs for each earring,

measure and cut the following amount lengths:

• 1.5 inch (x4)
• 2 inch (x4)
• 3 inch (×2)

Next, take the open jump ring and add the pieces of chain in the following order:

• 1.5 inch
• 2 inch
• 3 inch
• 2 inch
• 1.5 inch

So the final step is to add the earring hook and close the jump ring,

Using the 2 pairs of pliers, grab the ring on both ends and pull them toward eachother to close the

jump ring and complete the earring.

So that’s it! We are done, now you can look at your work, and correct anything that needs correcting. If you have a chain that’s a little longer you can trim it, make sure that your jump ring is closed completely, and admire your work:)

I have added a pic of some of variations that I spoke about in the intro. I hope you have as much fun creating these earrings as I do. Maybe try adding some charms or beads to them:) Please feel free to upload your creations, I would love to see what you come up with ♡ Thank you for your time;)
