I am a huge fan of Regina Spektor's music, and fashion. I could not find a picture of her wearing the earrings that the ones I made are based off of, but you can see them in her amazing and beautiful, music video, "Us"

Instructions

    Attach a hoop on the back of each charm by pushing the hoop into the charm a bit, then take a tiny scrap of clay and use it to cover the bare part of the hoop that you pushed into the clay. Make sure that the opening of the hoop is not covered.

  3. Small 104988 2f2014 10 20 014437 dsc01167

    Take a piece of wire, leave a little room at the beginning, then loop it around into 3 circles. Each circle should be a bit bigger than the last.

    Take the left over bit of wire in the center, and twist it around the top of the 3 loops.

  5. Small 104988 2f2014 10 20 014553 dsc01170

    Use the left over wire at the end to cross over to make a little up-side-down tear drops, and use the rest to twist around the 3 loops

  6. Small 104988 2f2014 10 20 014630 dsc01171

    Open the hoop on the back of a charm then attach it to the tear drop.
