Mi Casa, Su Casa Pendant and Earrings Tutorial

Here is a simple and easy project to whip up using one of house beads and a few Vintaj findings. Mix and match the houses, disk beads and earring charms to create a set that's perfect for your favorite outfit or to give as a gift. 

Pendant Supplies:

House bead

14mm disk bead

20mm brass rope jump ring

2 6mm gunmetal jump rings

1 2" brass headpin

1 4mm o-glass spacer bead

1 brass flower bead cap

1 Czech glass tulip flower bead

6" 20 gauge antique brass colored Parawire

26" gunmetal chain.

1. On the headpin, string the tulip bead and flower bead cap. Create a wrapped loop at the top of the bead cap. Set aside.

2. On the 6" length of wire, create a loop 2" from the bottom. Open the loop, slide on the bead dangle from step 1. Close the loop and wrap the wire several times above the loop to create a wrapped loop. 

3. String on the disk bead, o-bead spacer and house bead. Create a wrapped loop on top of the house beads. 

4. Add the gunmetal jump rings to the ends of the chain. String the ends of the chain and house pendant on the large 20mm rope jump ring, close the jump ring.
