Step 1
Gather your supplies:
- 2 faceted citrine beads. I used oval beads but any citrine beads of
your choice will do.
- 2 Bali daisy spacer beads. I used 14KT Gold filled findings.
- 2 white seed pearls
- 2 14KT gold filled headpins.
- 2 earwires, french hooks, leverbacks or posts (your choice) I
used 14KT gold filled french hook ear wires in my design

Step 2
Slide beads onto head pins.
These couldn't be easier to make. Slide each bead onto a headpin, and make a closed wire loop at the
top, attaching the earring to the earring component. I
did my beads in this order, but you can add or subtract beads and create
your own order to create your own pleasing design:
- White seed pearl
- Bali daisy spacer bead
- Citrine bead
At the top of the last bead, using round nose pliers, create a loop in
the wire, slide onto earring component to fasten, then close the loop. If
you need help learning to make a loop, follow these instructions.
Repeat for second earring.
That's it! Your citrine bead earrings earrings are ready to
wear!
