These are pretty simple ear cuffs to make. I started out with about 13" of 20g wire bent in half. The coiling and weaving is done with 28g wire.
I'm having trouble getting images to upload today. Since I couldn't get all of the steps posted here I compiled them all into one image and posted them to flickr. There are no directions, just the images. But if you want to make the ear cuffs this should be enough to get you started in the right direction. http://www.flickr.com/photos/gailavira/5875019204
You can use any style of weaving you want to with this ear cuff. The one on these is just an example. If yoiu are new to weaving with wire, you can learn a suitable weave pattern from my Basic Weaving Techniques tutorial: http://www.instructables.com/id/Wire-Jewelry-Making-Basic-Weaving-Techniques/
If you want to learn to add beads to a weave, you can find that in my tutorial, Basic Weaving Techniques 3: http://www.instructables.com/id/Jewelry-Basic-Weaving-3-Adding-Beads-to-a-Weave/
