Configuration:
 The jewelry wire bail shown at right is in a teardrop shape.
Many people like this shape better than a circle because it is slightly
more complex. Our instructions for making the teardrop jewelry
wire bail will be provided within the next month.
The earrings shown at left use the round bail instructions. They
are made with a single loop of wire around the 3/16" Super Peg instead
of two loops as we did with the bail for the necklace. You will
find that it is important to use soft wire when making the necklace
bail. It is also important to use 1/2 hard wire when making the
bail for the earrings. The earrings shown use our 7x18mm pendant
Cubic Zirconia.
You
can find these 7x18mm pendants here. These earrings use a 3/16"
bail
  and
because the pendants are larger, the 3/16" bail works very well.
 What
do you do with smaller pendants. Certainly for smaller pendants
like the pendant shown below-right, a 3/16" bail will be too large.
For this pendant we made a handmade bail finding with a 3/32" loop at
the top. Please see the next web page for our instructions on how
to make a round bail finding with a 3/32" loop.
