You can use a simple bamboo chopstick to close the prongs.

The bases are already connected, so all you are left to do is embed your favorite crystals, and the earrings are ready.

To secure the crystals in their settings, you can use a prong pusher tool, it is just more convenient, though not necessary. The embedding can also be done with a wooden stick or bamboo chopstick that does the same job.

 

 

 

It is essential to make sure that the crystals we have chosen are in the correct size and shape, so check the base requirements on the details page of each base you can reach the appropriate crystals directly from the completing items tab within the product page. 

 

Add the crystals of your choice to the cart.

At Cup Chain, we offer only quality rhinestone crystals that sit perfectly inside the bases.

Here you will find crystals from top quality brands like Aurora, Swarovski, and Preciosa.

Try to create exciting and unique color combinations by combining different crystals in brilliant colors and matching the dress and the overall design look.

 

 

Below are a few examples of embedding different earrings styles using Aurora crystals.

 

What's your metal color?

The bases in this series are offered from 17 different metal platings: yellow gold (as in the pictures), nickel, shiny silver, matte, bronze, and antique platings.

After selecting your preferred earring bases, you will be asked to choose its metal color.

 

All bases are handmade from Cup Chain's factory.

After ordering, the bases are soldered and undergo a quality metal plating process (according to the customer's choice).
