may be a bit parital since my birthday is in November but Citrine has always been one of my favorite minerals. The golden color always catches my eye and I just want to touch it! Β Citrine is a mineral that is known for its cleansing and balancing properties. Wear this crystal when you are seeking personal balance, confidence and clarity.
November Birthstone: Topaz Β November Birth-mineral: Citrine
Thread the post through the bead and use the pliers to bend a small hook into the base of the post that will hold the bead on it. Β Now thread one of the earring hooks onto the post and to finish the earring, bend the post in half and tuck it into the bead.

Let me know if you give these a try and I’d love to see pictures!
Very cool, I could make myself some birthday earrings to keep celebrating my birthday month!
Ha, there you go! Keep the celebration going! π
If I had my way I would celebrate the entire month… and sometimes I do!
Absolutely gorgeous! I have the pliers and the stone, just need the wire now π My Birthday is in November too, so I guess I might be a tad bias as-well!! π
Hooray for November birthdays! π Send pics if you make them, I’d like to see!
Beautiful and so easy! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks, Susie!
You are so lucky to have citrine as your birthstone! Mine is peridot…can’t stand it :(. Cheers for the heads up on the earrings…I would need 7 of them and Steve would need 9! π
Haha, that’s awesome…7! 9! wowsers! π
I’ve always thought peridot was pretty but I like pretty much anything that’s green. Your birth-mineral or crystal is sardonyx, maybe you’ll like that a bit more, the black version with blue swirls through it is really pretty.
it would go with my eyes better than the green π
those look so fragile and pretty!
Thanks! I really wanted to showcase the lovely color of the stone. π
Lovely earrings Katy. And thank you for sharing the information on how they are made.
Thanks for the compliment, Jean! (And no worries on the name spelling, no offense taken π )
Katie. I’m sorry I spelt your name incorrectly. Hope this makes up.
These are beautiful!
Thanks, Heidi!
Thanks for sharing your technique!
Of course, I’m happy to share! Figured it was just so darn easy that anyone could make them and making your own jewelry is pretty fun!
easy and cool technique.. thanks for sharing.. π
Awesome! I imagine she’ll like them very much, nothing is better than handmade jewelry.
I will made one for my girl friend.. <3 <3
What beautiful earrings… and you made them! Thanks for sharing.
And you can make them too! π
Thanks Katie, I am a November born too π U are good at making them, they look beautiful π
Another November birthday, awesome! And I’m glad you like the earrings. π
π Keep doing that π
These look great and balancing!
Thanks! I like the “and balancing” part. π
