Hoop Earrings made from leftover beads!

Don't you hate it when you end up with a couple beads left after making a necklace or bracelet? I always end up with at least one or two left which isn't enough for another piece of jewelry. This is a great way to use up those extra beads and make a very easy convertible pair of earrings that could match what ever outfit you are wearing!

Tools & Supplies needed:
Leftover beads assorted sizes and colors
Gold or silver 2 inch earring hoops (I found mine at my Local Bead Store)
Round Nose Pliers 


Just put the beads on in an appealing order.
 I generally go from smallest to largest back to smallest. 
Just bend the ends of the hoop to a 45 degree angle so they can be hooked together.


 Here are some variations that I have made...




ENJOY!
