Follow these steps to make your amazing triangle statement earrings:

1: Bend the end of each wire to form a right angle using the flat nose pliers.

2: Loop the end of each wire using round nose pliers.

3: Add beads to two of the wires, these will form the bottom of your triangles. I added some statement beads to each of these wires.

4: Bend the ends of the beaded wires to form another right angle.

5: Loop the end of the wire using the round nose pliers. This will secure the beads in place.

6: Repeat steps 3-5 for two more of the pins, these will be used to attach the triangles to the earring hooks.

7: Add your accent beads to the four remaining wires to create four solid beaded pins, secure the beads in place as you did in steps 4 and 5.

8: Now it is time to start assembling your earrings, Add one of the solid beaded wires to one of the accent beaded wires.

9: Add a second solid beaded wire to the first accent beaded wire, so you have one statement beaded wire with two solid beaded wires attached.

10: Add a second statement beaded wire to the earring, attaching each end to each of the solid beaded wires to form a triangle shape.

11: Repeat steps 8 to 10 for the second earring.

12: Attach each of the earring hooks to the triangle forms. Once both earring hooks are attached your earrings are finished and ready to wear out! How will you style yours?

Here are the finished earrings!
