Wire Looping Tool
Optional Tool: Crimping Tool
Measure and straighten 2 pieces of wire
20 inches long.
On one piece of wire, center the crystal. Bend each
end of the wire over the crystal forming an X at top the crystal.
Twist two to three times. Straighten wire. 
Thread both flowers onto
both ends of the wire and push down to crystal.
Take the shortest
side of the wire and twist around the longest at the base of the last
flower two to three times.
On the twisting wire, thread the
teardrop. At about ½ inch from the base of the flower, twist the
wire and bead counterclockwise to form an X above the teardrop and
twist three to four more times. Take twisting wire and wrap around
the base of the flower twice. 
Use crimping pliers if necessary to
tighten the wraps. Trim excess from twisting wire.
Bend long wire
at a 90 degree angle. Measure 2 ½
inches from flower base and trim wire.
Measure 1 inch from base of
flower and place the largest part of the barrel of looping pliers.
Push wire away from you over the barrel and downward.
At ¼ inch from
the end of your wire, make a slight bend with chain nose pliers.
Repeat for second earring.
Use a nylon mallet to harden the ear wire
on each earring. Using a ball peen hammer or chasing hammer,
slightly hammer the ear wire for a forged look. Finish by using a
cup burr to smooth the end of the wire.
Crystals can be substituted for Swarovski Crystals if you so choose. I recommend using Jonquil.
Finished length: 2 ¼ inches.
