Pendants make a lovely addition to necklaces. They can add style and charm to a plain chain necklace. However, some prefer not to wear necklaces for various reasons, whether it is that many chains do not fit or they do not care for things to be around their neck. For these people, pendant earring sets are useful. They can purchase two matching pendants and create a pair of earrings out of them.

It is important not to choose pendants that are very large. They need to be lightweight, as your ears will have to endure the strain associated with wearing them. Heavy metals and stones are not recommended for pendant earrings. Ensure that the two pendants chosen are identical, as wearing them as a mismatching set could look a bit strange.

Purchase some eye pin jewelry findings. They can typically be bought from any craft or hobby store. Secure each necklace pendant to one of the pins. To open the pin, use a pair of needle nose pliers. Carefully bend one end just enough to slide the loop of the pendant over it. Bend the end back to close the pin and secure the pendant in place.

Use wire cutters to remove the excess wire of the pin. The cut should be made about one half inch above the pendant. If you prefer some metal to show above your pendant earrings, make the cut a bit higher. Beads can be added to the wire above the pendant for added uniqueness to your pendant earring sets. Be sure to cut both pin wires as close to the same size as possible to promote symmetry.

Use the needle nose pliers again to create a curve in the top section of the eye pin. Make sure it is in a neat circle so it will look nice on your ears. Before completely closing the circle, slide the wire into the loop on the earring hook jewelry finding that was used earlier. Squeeze the loop closed with the pliers to make sure the pendant is secure on the wire. Do the same for the other earring. Your pendant earrings are now finished and are ready to be worn.

Pendant earring sets are a unique way to display necklace pendants when you do not prefer to wear a necklace. Many of these sets are very attractive, and not something that can be purchased in stores. These are great for those who stay away from simple sets or earrings, or like to create their own look. You can now make your own earrings, and also make them for others as gifts. Be sure to follow the directions carefully so that you create earrings that will hold together for many wearings to come.
