Follow these steps to make your D-shaped statement earrings:

1: Use the round nose pliers to make a loop at one end of the memory wire half circle.

2: Add the beads to around halfway on the curve.

3: Add the statement bead to the centre of the curve.

4: Bead the remaining part of the curve with the glass beads again until there is about 1cm left un-beaded.

5: Create a loop at the other end of the memory wire curve using the round nose pliers again.

6: Repeat steps 1 to 5 for the second piece of memory wire.

7: Add beads to the long eye pin and leave 1cm un-beaded at the end. Repeat for both pins.

8: Create a loop at the end of both pins using the round nose pliers.

9: Attach each of the beaded eye pins to the top of each memory wire curve. This will create a tighter curve on each piece of memory wire and form the D shape.

10: Attach the chain to each side of the D shape using the small jump rings. Both D shapes will now have a chain loop attached to them.

11: Add one of the larger jump rings to each of the earring posts.

12: Attach the earrings to the charms by threading the chain through each of the open jump rings. Close the jump rings on the earring posts to secure them together.

Now your earrings are finished and ready to wear!
