You Will Need (5 things)

  • 2 Jump Rings
  • String
  • Wire Cutter
  • OPTIONAL Pliers
  • Earrings

Steps (9 steps, 5 minutes)

  1. 1

    Gather all of your single dangly earrings that are missing their pairs.

  2. 2

    Choose the ones you want to be on the necklace and arrange them on top of each other in the order you want.

  3. 3

    Take the bottom earring and slip the top through a jump ring.

  4. 4

    Bend a loop in the top of the earring.

  5. 5

    Cut off the excess wire.

  6. 6

    Repeat these steps for the rest of the earrings, going in the order you picked.

  7. 7

    Soon you should have them all connected to the jump ring.

  8. 8

    Attach another jump ring to the top of the first one and close it.
    (This is so it lays flat when you use it.)

  9. 9

    Slip a string though the 2nd jump ring and tie a knot at the end. My string was about 16 inches long.
    Now you have a cute new accessory!
