These gorgeous earbobs are simple and delicate, perfect for wearing out every day. We paired our baroque scrollwork findings with 12mm Czech glass for a fun earring perfect for any occasion. What makes these earrings stand out is the "stacking" of assorted beads and caps to lend an abundant look. This would also be a great project to use leftover beads and caps. Try using topaz brown beads for a subtle, autumn look!

Step 1:
String 1 large beadcap, 1 large bead and another beadcap onto a ballpin. Continue with varying sizes of beadcaps on top of the large beadcap and also add a crystal rondelle and Czech rondelle for extra sparkle. Then, using roundnose pliers, create a round loop at the top of the design.
Tip: Skip Step 2 by creating an eyepin loop instead of a wrapped loop.

Step 2:
Attach the loop to the bottom of the scrollwork connector, then finish the loop with a couple of wraps using chain nose pliers. Trim the excess wire with wire cutters. Use chain nose pliers to squeeze down any wire that might be sticking out.

Step 3:
Using chain nose pliers, open and attach an earwire to the scrollwork finding Repeat these 3 steps for the 2nd earring. Voilà! Your finished Victorian Scrollwork earbobs!
