Now we’re going to make this really cute and simple pair of easy and elegant earrings. So, the first thing to do is take my Mini Bowdabra. Then, take my Bowdabra Bow Wire, fold it in half, and lay it down into the Mini Bowdabra. And I’m just going to tuck the ends underneath, so they stay out of my way.
Now, all I’m going to do is take this little piece of ribbon and just center it. I just center it and put that right down into my Mini Bowdabra. And I just want to make sure that my bow is in the perfect center here. So, then what I’ll do is take my Bowdabra Bow Wire, pull it through and just hold that little, tiny piece of ribbon down. Next, take the wire out. And now I’m going to separate the ends, bring it around to the back. (Tie tightly once)
And then, I’m going to take it and I’m going to measure. I’m going to take my little earring finding that you can buy at any craft store or online. And, I’m just going to feed this ribbon down through here and figure out the length that I want my earrings to be. The ones I’m doing are about 2 1/2 inches long. So, now that I know how long it’s going to be, I’m just going to take my wire, bring it back up here, and just twist it and tie a knot here. (Tie, double knot, and clip the ends)
And then I’m going to take my beads, and I’m just going to cut real close, so you don’t have the string. Finally, I’m going to take just a little bit of glue here, put that right in the center. Now, you have this really cute pair of gorgeous earrings.
