00:04hello everyone welcome again to another earrings exquisite tutorial so today I'm going to show you
00:14how to make long earrings like they dangle so you will need your two tall head pins okay
00:29you will need your needle nose pliers and you will need your wire cutter and your big nose
00:43flyer maybe you may need these two pliers but maybe not we'll see okay so if you like my video
00:53I would like to tell you to subscribe subscribe so you don't miss anything okay all right let's get
01:01started so I have this head pin right and it's a little crooked so what you do is you take
01:09either
01:10this chain nose flyer or this tool and again I forgot the name but it's a cool tool it's like
01:18a
01:18chain nose pliers but it's a little bigger in size than the chain nose pliers anyway you take
01:26this and you just kind of straighten it out a little bit like that see so that it gets straight
01:34nothing is garbage don't ever throw it away and say oh I can't use this because it's garbage no
01:42everything is good you just have to fix the shape see so I fixed it so that was fine see
01:49so now it's
01:50nice and straight okay so I'm going to put this flower spacer well I don't know if you can see
02:00it but
02:00that's a flower spacer I'm gonna put that on first just like that and then I'm gonna start putting the
02:08beads I'm gonna put this bead and then I'm gonna put a flower spacer and then a bead and then
02:21a flower
02:22spacer and then a bead and the flower spacer
02:38and a flower spacer and then a bead looks like that and a flower spacer and then a bead looks
03:04like that and a flower spacer
03:04Let's see if we can fit one more bead on there.
03:07Let's see.
03:11B, it's kind of pushing it, but I won't do it.
03:17So then you take one of these small spacer balls
03:22and you put that on.
03:28Oops, it flew somewhere.
03:31Okay, you heard it.
03:32I'm just moving away from the camera for a minute to put it.
03:37And like that.
03:39Now, it's a little long.
03:42So when it's a little long like this,
03:45you want to cut a little bit of it off
03:47because it's a little long.
03:50So I'm going to take my wire cutter
03:53and I'm going to cut a little bit of it off.
03:56Like about this much.
04:00Once you start doing it, guys,
04:03you will learn to wing it.
04:05Now I take my needle nose spire
04:08and I'm going to put it on here like this.
04:12And you bend to the right
04:16so that it looks like that.
04:19If you're a lefty, it's going to be bent to the left.
04:21So I'm going to bend it to the right
04:24and then
04:27take your needle nose,
04:28you hold it
04:29and then you start curling it
04:32just like that.
04:34Yeah.
04:37Hold it like that
04:38and just curl
04:42so that you get that
04:44question mark look.
04:46It came out a little crazy
04:48so you take this tool
04:49and just straighten it out.
04:53I'm just going to straighten it out a bit.
04:57Like that.
05:00Make it straight.
05:01Okay.
05:03And I'm going to curl it just a little more
05:07so that it looks
05:08like this, guys.
05:12Like that.
05:13Okay.
05:14And then
05:16I have different hooks.
05:18I have these hooks
05:19which are pretty cool
05:21and
05:23I have
05:24these earring hooks.
05:26So
05:26you just
05:27put on
05:30a earring hook.
05:31I'm going to put this one on.
05:33either one
05:34that you like to use.
05:37And I'm just going to put it on.
05:40So now
05:41that it's like that.
05:42See?
05:43And then
05:44I finish
05:46closing it out.
05:50So I'm going to
05:51turn it a little more in
05:52as close as I can.
05:54And then
05:56I
05:57turn it this way
05:59and I like to use
06:00that bent nose flyer.
06:02so I'll hold it down
06:04like that.
06:12And you just
06:14bring it in
06:15a little more.
06:17Just like that.
06:19Now
06:19I'm going to
06:21completely
06:23close it.
06:27let me just
06:28use the other
06:29earring hook
06:29because
06:30that one's acting up.
06:32So
06:32there's a regular
06:33earring hook.
06:35And then I
06:36take this
06:37and I close it.
06:40And now
06:43I'm going to
06:44hold it
