FREE Friday Afternoon DIY Project! Jingle Bell Earrings

Sometimes, we just need a quick project to wear for a casual holiday gathering.  These Jingle Bell Earrings are super easy, super fast, and every so cute!  We will once again be using Cousin Corporation's 'Tis The Season line available at Prima Bead and at your local A.C. Moore.



Crafting Time: 10 minutes
Skill Level: Beginner
Skills Needed: Jump Rings

Tools: 2 Pair of Chain Nose Pliers and/or Bent Nose Pliers.  You can also use a jump ring opener.

Materials
(10) 6mm Jump Rings
(2) Ear Wires
(14) Jingle Bells.
I used these for this project 34742124 Tis the Season Bell Jingle Charms - Red/Green/Gold (from Prima Bead).

Begin by opening all of the jump rings.  On one jump ring slide on a jingle bell and close the ring. 
On another ring slip on a jingle bell, the jump ring you just closed and another jingle bell. Close the ring.






























Continue until you have used five bells.

Slide on a jingle bell, the previous jump ring, another jingle bell, and the ear wire.  Close the ring.
 
Repeat for second earring.  Quick tip:  Make sure you reverse the colors on the second earring so they will be opposite of each other.


Enjoy your earrings!
