DIY: Under the Sea Ear Cuff Part 1

Hi everyone! How have you been? I'm guessing that many of you are busy watching the Olympics :) Although I enjoy watching the games, I've also been doing some DIY projects. I keep seeing ear cuffs dominate retail stores at prices that are unrealistic. I decided to make my own and customize it to satisfy my inner hipster! Haha. I filmed a tutorial which is broken up into 2 parts. The first part shows you how to make the basic cuff and the second part shows you how to decorate it. I wanted an "under the sea" theme and I had a seahorse charm lying around which was perfect. So without further ado, here's part 1 of the tutorial and some photos.

Here's what you'll need:
  • Jewelry wire -Hong Kong (I used 0.5mm)
  • Round nose plier -Hong Kong
  • Flat nose plier -Hong Kong
  • Cutting plier -Hong Kong
  • Pencil
  • Ruler
You should be able to find all the supplies and materials in your local craft store ex. Michael's

I hope you enjoyed the tutorial! Feel free to leave any questions below ^^ 

Check out part 2 here!
