How to Make Rainbow Earrings with SilverSilk
When life has you feeling blue, add some more color until you get a rainbow! In this tutorial, I stack together SilverSilk chains and use 20- and 26-gauge wire to hold, coil and embellish my rainbow. Try it with different colors of Capture Chain or maybe you have scraps to play with! Either way, this project is sure to bring a smile to your face.

Design your own stunning jewelry with this revolutionary knitted wire jewelry chain! Solid Gold Capture Chain is made by machine-knitting 32-gauge, permanently enameled gold wire over a 2.4mm gold-plated ball chain. The result is a stunning 3mm knitted wire chain that is an absolute joy to create jewelry with.
This chain is durable, free-flowing and can be cut to any length without fraying. Pair the chain with our Single-, Double-, or Triple-strand End Caps for a flawless finish on your design. Simply place the chain inside the end cap channel and use wide nose pliers, with a protective coating to prevent scratches or marring, to crimp the end cap. You'll find everything you need for professionally crimping the ends in the Custom Findings section.
SilverSilk’s 20-gauge earring wires are ideal for creating your own custom earring design with a professional finish. Each earring wire has a high-quality metal plating over a brass core and a ball at the end of the wire, making it easy to attach your favorite bead or charm right onto the loop. Each earring measures about 15mm wide and 10mm tall and comes with a plastic earring back to ensure a secure fit when wearing them. Earring wires are sold as a pair, or (two earring wires), per package.
