If you are sick of matching earrings this is the tutorial for you… How to make asymmetrical earrings.
I am seeing loads of cool asymmetrical earrings around lately, here’s how to make a pair of your own.

You will need the following tools and materials to make your asymmetrical earrings:
1: Pliers. I used my round nose pliers, cutting pliers and flat nose pliers.

2: Eye pins of different lengths. I used two eye pins.

3: Three small head pins.

4: One larger head pin.

5: A pair of stud earring findings.

6: Beads of your choice. I used some vintage yellow tube beads, some blue plastic beads and some yellow and blue glass beads.

Follow these steps to make your asymmetrical earrings:
1: Add one of the glass beads and tube beads to the larger head pin.

2: Bend the top of the pin to form a right angle.

3: Trim the pin so that it is only 1cm long from the top of the bead.

4: Curl the top of the pin using the round nose pliers to secure the bead on the pin.

5: Add the longer bead to the longer eye pin and repeat steps 2-4 to secure the bead in place.





5: Attach the two pins together.


6: Attach the top of the charm to the loop of the earring finding.

7: Add the plastic blue beads to each of the small head pins.

8: Curl the tops of the pins to secure the beads in place.


9: Place the remaining glass beads on the shorter eye pin.

10: Repeat steps 2-4 to secure the glass beads on the eye pin. (Skip the wire trimming if your pin is the right length!)


11: Put the small blue charms onto the bottom of the beaded pin.


12: Add an earring finding to the top of the pin to finish the second earring.

Now your asymmetrical beaded earrings are finished and ready to wear!
