Here’s how to turn some beads into a pair double-charm stud earrings.

These earrings are pretty fun. With the right selection of beads you can create a cool pair of earrings that feature two dangling charms!

You’ll need the following tools and materials to make your double charm earrings:

1: Pliers. I used my round nose and cutting pliers.

2: Two glue on stud earrings and earring backs.

3: Two flat beads. I used these round love heart beads.

7: Glue. I used a two part epoxy glue.

8: Scrap paper for mixing the glue on.

9: A skewer for mixing and applying the glue.

Follow these steps to make your double charm earrings:

1: Add the flat beads to each of the eye pins.

2: Bend the pins to form a right angle.

3: Trim the excess pin using the cutting pliers, leave approximately 1cm.

4: Form the end of the pins into loops using the round nose pliers.

5: Add the charm beads to each of the head pins.

6: Repeat steps 2 to 4 for each of the charm beads so that you end up with four charms with loops at the top.

7: Attach each of the charms to the flat centre beads. I added one star bead and one flower bead to each heart bead.

8: Mix up the glue on the scrap paper and apply it to both the flat beads and the stud earring findings.

9: Place the earrings onto the centre beads and leave them to dry. I suggest using a little less glue than I did because I ended up with some drips on the sides of my earrings.

Once your earrings are dry you can pop them on and have some fun!
