You can make these earrings easily in 5-10 minutes! Use colorful craft wires and make as many pars as you want. You can also make them as gift for those who love to wear simple stud earrings ^_^

Hold the craft wire from one end, (keep it on the bundle), Use the looping plier to make a small loop on that end
Circle the wire around that loop once or twice (but not more than that)
After making the first swirl hold the flat plier tightly right below the swirl, Bend the wire upwards as shown in the picture,
Now make the second swirl, for the second swirl use the looping plier to make the outer loop,
and then carefully circle the wire towards the center to complete the second swirly pattern
Use the flat nose plier to make a 90 degree bend from the center of the second swirl,
Keep 2 cm of the bent wire straight (this would be the stem of the ear stud) and cut the wire from the bundle by using a cutting plier.
I used white eraser (rubber) to make the earring backs. Use x-acto knife to cut the eraser into small pieces. Carefully push and screw the stem of the ear stud on the small eraser pieces and it will create a hole
