I had a large amount of various beads from a broken plant hanger, and I found a few that I really liked.

You Will Need (3 things)
- Bead(s)
- Wire
- Earring Hooks
Steps (5 steps, 20 minutes)
-
1
Pick out your beads, and arrange them how you want them to hang
-
2
Next measure out a length of wire about twice as long as your beads
-
3
thread the wire through the bottom bead, and fold it up around it and then twist, trying to get it as tight against the bead as you can. I used a pair of small pliers to tighten it.
-
4
thread the remaining beads on
-
5
wrap one strand of the wire through the loop on your earring hook, and fold it back into the top bead, wrap the other part of the wire around the bottom of the hook, and carefully fold it into itself, leaving no sharp edges
