Welcome to the Crafty Princess Diaries, my weblog and site where I get to blab about my passion for crafts, primarily jewelry making, and my crafting career. My name is Tammy Powley, and I decided to call my blog the Crafty Princess Diaries because of this very dorky picture I have of myself and because my husband often refers to me as “the princess and the pea,” which is just another way to say that I tend to be particular sometimes. Along with this weblog, I have a number of jewelry making books published.

Reading old issue of BeadStyle (Sept. 2006) page 40 there are a set of instructions for making 3 loops at the bottom of a 2″ piece of 24 gauge wire to make earrings. Rest of instructions say to string bicone crystal, flat spacer, nugget or rondelle, flat spacer, bicone & making wrapped loop and then attaching ear wire. I ‘ m not sure which loop to start first at the bottom of the wire. Can you remember this pattern? No worries if you can’t but thought I would ask anyway. Thank you.

It sounds like you are making triple loop head pins, yes? If so, I’ve got a video on how to do that here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w7_p4tHiC-0&index=20&list=PLmJoCZ34Y47c0YuWm3sfokCZ_tQPUx7cY
