Christmas Angel Earrings DIY - It's a Magical Project for the Holidays

December rocks, right? 

It's all about gearing up for Christmas, getting that perfect gift, hanging with family and friends, maybe belting out a few Christmas tunes. 

But amidst all the fun, let's not forget the real reason behind our Christmas celebrations: the birth of Jesus. To honour that sacred moment, I've whipped up a tutorial for some heavenly Angel-inspired earrings. Let's sprinkle a little divine magic into our holiday hustle as well!

Let's get into this stunning project.

But first, you'll need to know how to make your own triangle jump rings. If this is your first time making triangle jump rings, see how to do that in this tutorial.

Here's what you'll need to make your own pair of Heavenly Host earrings:

• Gold aluminium mesh fabric
• 2 23x26mm Silver Angel Charm
• 2 smokey black star crystals with top drilled hole
• Beadalon 22 Gauge Hematite Artistic Wire
• 26 Gauge Gold Wire
• fine silver chain
• 2 silver earring wires
• 6 x 4mm silver jump rings
• tools: round nose pliers, chain nose pliers, flush cutters

Cut a piece of mesh 11 links x 11 links and then cut a length of gold wire approximately 25cm (10") long. Turn the mesh over to the back and thread the wire through the claws along the first side. Thread it along the second edge, pushing it through from the corner rather than pulling it from the end. This will help eliminate a nasty kink at the corner.

Repeat on all sides so that the wire exits from the top. Now that the mesh is wired, you'll be able to shape it as you wish.

Twist the wires together neatly.

Form a loop and then thread on the earring wire making sure it is facing the right way. Finish the loop by wrapping it around the neck. Trim away the excess.

Cut a piece of chain 15mm (5/8") long and use jump rings to connect one end to the angel charm and the other end to the earring wire.

Create a triangle jump ring from the Hematite Wire for the star crystal. 

Connect the triangle jump ring to the earring wire with the remaining silver jump ring and you're done! Make another earring to match and you're ready to wear your angel earrings.

I really hope you had a blast with this tutorial!
