Step 6 Creating the earring

For this step you will need:

4 metal connectors
2 needle nose pliers
2 ear wires
6 plastic triangles you created!

The first step is to slightly open the metal connector (connector A). The easiest way is to use one pair of pliers to hold one side of the connector while you use the other pair to pry it open.

Next add the 3 triangles in order of smallest to largest and then add an additional metal connector (Connector B). Once you have the 4 items on connector A take one pair of pliers and gently squeeze it shut.

Next you are going to open Connector B (again using both pair of pliers) and add the ear wire.

Close Connector B

Congratulations you have made your first earring! Repeat these steps to make the pair!!!

You should invest or make a jump ring opener, it's a real time saver:

Maybe I read your description wrong, but the best way to open a jump ring is to hold both sides near the gap and twist them sideways in opposite directions. Put what you want on them, then twist them back. If you just pry them apart, you will wont be able to get the jump closed in a nice circle.
