1️⃣ BEADING THREAD

Nylon beading thread is best for fringe earrings. I'm a fan of Miyuki beading thread.

If you're comfortable with switching thread, you can use Fireline or Wildfire for the brick stitch portion and nylon thread for the fringe.

For this specific project, I used gold Miyuki beading thread.

2️⃣ BEADING NEEDLE

Size 10 or 12 works great for this project. Big eye beading needles also work well if you're still getting the hang of threading needles.

3️⃣ EAR WIRES

These are easy to find. Simply search for ear wires. And while ear wires are not shown in the example, they attach to the thread guard.

4️⃣ SCISSORS/CUTTERS

5️⃣ MIYUKI 11/0 SEED BEADS

This design was made using watermelon bead colors in shades of green, red, pink, and black.

TECHNIQUE(S)

Brick stitch is the main bead weaving stitch with this design. I created a double ladder stitch foundation row with the pink beads and then created the upper triangle with single or 1-drop brick stitch and made a bead loop at the top. I then attached the fringe to pink foundation row.

DESIGN SIZE

The finished design is approximately 1.1" inches wide and 1.3" inches tall (not including the bead loop or ear wire).
