Designer Tips
- Place the crystal in the bezel setting, and using the nylon jaw flat pliers gently fold the prongs down over the crystal.
- Using the 6.5mm jump ring attach the bezel to the large round link. (For best way to open and close loops, see Jump Ring Hint in Jewelry Basics 101).
- Attach one of the 5mm jump rings to the large round link.
- Use the second 5mm jump ring to attach the earwire to the first 5mm jump ring.
- Repeat for the other earring.
