6: A small piece of thin scrap wire or similar for applying the glue.

Follow these steps to make your new pair of pearl drop earrings:

1: Squeeze the glue out onto the scrap paper and mix it with the skewer.

2: Apply the glue sparingly to both the pearl posts and the holes in the pearls using the piece of thin wire.

3: Place the posts into the hole and set the earrings aside to dry. You may need to prop them up with something like Blu-tac to ensure that the earrings dry in the right position. Make sure you wipe away any excess glue with a tissue.

Once the glue is set, your earrings are ready to wear! Where will you wear yours? I was thinking of wearing mine to an upcoming wedding. So elegant and special.

Here’s how the finished earrings look!
