You have enough directions that I think I can succeed at making these.
It was very helpful that you described the thread as "embroidery thread", so I knew what you were talking about.
If another crafter reads this, I will explain further.
The embroidery thread, referenced above, would be DMC 25 embroidery thread.
This type of thread comes in hundreds of colors.
DMC is the company, Coats & Clark is another, as is Anchor.
25 is the size of the cotton thread.
This is 6 strands of thread, lightly twisted together into 1 larger strand of thread.
You can separate it into 6 threads if you do cross stitch or needlepoint.
DMC sells a thread made of rayon, if you want to use that instead of cotton.
The rayon is very, very, very shinny, but very slippery.
You would have to glue it onto the entire length of the wire.
DMC sells filaments you can add to the cotton thread to add sparkle.
They also sell very fine braid, which would look great on an ear wire.
This comes in metallic colors and a few iridescent colors.
I want to say thank you again.
I really appreciated the last picture showing the ear cuff on the ear, as I have never worn or made ear cuffs before.
Seeing how it fits, on the ear, is very important !
Thanks for a tutorial that makes sense and looks great.
