How to make a long pair of triangle dangle earrings!
It’s no secret that I really like making triangle shaped jewelry. Triangles are easy to construct using eye pins, and their angles add striking geometric features to your jewelry collection! These earrings feature three triangles each for a cool look. Please note that this tutorial contains affiliate links.
You’ll need these tools and materials to make this pair of triangle dangle earrings:
1: A set of pliers. I used my cutting pliers and round nose pliers most of the time. Flat nose pliers are handy to have around too.
2: Eighteen eye pins.
3: Six small jump rings.
4: A pair of larger jump rings.
5: A pair of earring findings.
6: Beads. I used some cute green glass seed beads.
Follow these steps to make your own pair of cute triple triangle dangles:
1: Add four beads to one of the eye pins.
2: Add one of the small jump rings.
3: Add another four glass beads.
4: Secure the beads in place by looping the end of the eye pin using your round nose pliers.
5: Repeat steps 1 to 4 for another pin.
6: Set the first pins with the jump rings aside.
7: Bead another four eye pins, this time skipping the step where you add the jump ring. These pins will just have beads.
8: Now attach two of the beaded pins to one of the pins with a jump ring to form a chain.
9: Attach the last pin on the chain to the loop at the other end of the first pin, this will form your triangle shape.
10: Repeat steps 8 and 9 to make another triangle with a jump ring pin on the top.
11: Set your first two triangles aside.
12: Now bead the rest of your eye pins like you did in step 7.
13: Form the pins into four more triangle shapes using the steps you performed in steps 8 and 9.
14: Now you can attach the triangles together.
15: And now you can attach three triangles together using the small jump rings, make sure you have the first triangle you made at the top.
16: Repeat step 15 for the other set of triangles.
17: Now you can attach an earring to each of the earrings, slide one of the bigger jump rings through the ring at the top of each triangle and through the loop on the earring finding. Close the jump ring to secure the earrings in place. Repeat this for the other earring.
So now you can wear your triangle earrings! Super cute and fun. What color will you make yours in?

How to make a bunting inspired bracelet by making triangle shapes, so cute!
I was really excited when I came up with this bracelet design! It uses eye pins to make a series of triangles that are linked together to make wrist bunting! I love how there are lots of different ways you can use findings to make unique and sculptural pieces of jewelry. Please note that this tutorial contains affiliate links. This design might look complicated but its actually pretty easy bracelet making!
You’ll need these tools and materials to make this cute triangle bracelet:
1: Pliers. I used round nose pliers and flat nose pliers.
Here are some you can add to your jewelers tool kit:
2: Eye pins. I used a bunch of eye pins all the same length, 24 in total but you may need more or less depending on the size of your bracelet. I used gold tone for this design.
Here are some for your bracelet DIY:
3: Jump rings. I used 7 small jump rings in a gold tone. These were used to attach the triangles together.
4: Two larger jump rings to put the clasp onto the triangle chain.
Here’s a link to some different sized jump rings that you can add to your jewelry kit:
5: A toggle clasp. Mine was gold to match the rest of the hardware I used.
Check out this toggle clasp:
6: Beads. I used some yellow glass e-beads but you could use any colour.
Here are some links to beads you can use in crafting your bracelet:
Follow these steps to make your bunting inspired triangle bracelet:
1: Take one of the eye pins and add beads until there is approximately 1cm left without beads.
2: Bend the unbeaded section so that it forms an angle to the beaded section. You can do this with your fingers if your pin is soft enough or use your pliers.
3: Bend the top of the pin around the barrel of your round nose pliers to form a loop.
4: Repeat steps 1 to 3 for a second pin. Open one of the loops at the end of a pin and attach it to the first pin you completed. Close the loop to secure the pins together.
5: Repeat steps 1-4 for another pin.
6: Take the chain you just made and open a loop at the end of one of the end pins.
7: Link the two end pins and close the loop to form a triangle shape.
8: Make another triangle as you did in steps 1-7 and attach the two triangles together using one of the small jump rings, this is the start of your triangle chain.
9: Repeat steps 1-8 until you have a triangle chain long enough to fit your wrist. Make it a tiny bit smaller than you need to account for the length of the jump rings and toggle clasp.
10: Attach the toggle clasp components to each end using the two larger jump rings.
Now your cute triangle bracelet is finished and ready to wear! This bracelet is so fun to fidget with and will look great layered with other gold and silver tone jewellery. What colours will you make yours in?
I think if I make this design again I will bead it with a variety of pastel coloured beads for a cute vapor-wave look. How cute would that look when paired with a fun floral dress in summer?
