Fishing line, four rolled paper beads, four ivory beads ……. earrings that appear to float below the ear.
Made like this: the two pieces; about six inches long, fishing line tied to ivory beads at both ends.
One piece folded in half and poked through hole in ear; the other piece is threaded through the loop made by A. Then A is pulled back so that both loops meet behind ear. They can be adjusted to hang equally or at different levels.
Take care while wearing as with any loop in the ear.
You can make the rolled beads with any kind of paper starting with something triangular and a round stick like a knitting needle. Google for information.
