Twelve petals strung one by one on a gold-plated brass thread, and a flower takes shape. A delicate crown, placed between two mother-of-pearl beads, extended by a pearly acetate drop. At the top, a faceted mother-of-pearl cabochon catches the light. A simple assembly for a piece unlike any other.
For a flowery and bright look, from spring through summer evenings.
Necessary tools: Glue — UHU Max Repair
Thread 12 petals onto a brass thread, alternating the direction of each petal to create volume. Cross the two threads to form the crown. Pull the threads tight, then pass a thread inside the crown to lock the closure. Repeat a second time, then do the same with the other thread. Tighten well and cut the threads flush.
Thread a mother-of-pearl bead onto a stud, then the petal crown, then a second bead. Form a loop wide enough: you will need to connect the drop pendant there.
Attach the acetate drop pendant at the bottom of the earring. At the top, connect the earring support. Finally, glue the faceted mother-of-pearl cabochon into the support with a dab of glue.

Perles Corner tip
Properly position each petal before closing the crown: a regular flower is the detail that makes all the difference. If you want a fuller flower, add 2 to 3 extra petals.
Mother-of-pearl — softness and inner protection.
