Materials:

  • Zero balance gift card
  • 2 ear loop wires
  • 2 head pins
  • 4 small beads
  • 2 medium beads

  • Sharp scissors
  • Drill with 1/16” drill bit or 1/8” hole puncher
  • Round nose pliers
  • Wire cutter

Instructions:

  1. Cut two rectangles from the gift card. The earrings shown are approximately 1 inch wide by 1.5 inches tall.
     
  2. Drill or punch a hole near the top and the bottom of each rectangle.
     
  3. Using your head pins, thread 3 beads on each head pin and close with a loop at the top.
     
  4. Open all 6 jump rings.
     
  5. Link 1 jump ring to the ear loop wire and close.
