With the holidays just around the corner, it’s time to get festive with Swarovski crystal! We have two super simple projects that you can make in minutes just in time for your first holiday party or as a last minute gift!

First we have the classic favorite: the Swarovski crystal margarita Christmas tree.

To make one basic three tiered Christmas Tree you will need (double everything to make earrings):

1 head pin

1 3 or 4mm Swarovski bicone

1 6mm Swarovski margarita bead

1 8mm Swarovski margarita bead

1 10mm Swarovski margarita bead

1 Czech cube bead

Steps:

Take your head pin and add your components in this order:

1. Czech cube

2. Your largest margarita bead followed by the rest in descending size

3. The bicone

Finish off your Crystal Christmas tree with a basic loop at the top so that you can attach an ear wire to make an earring. Add these cute charms to bracelets or necklaces to get extra festive.

Embellish with spacers, bead caps and more to make a unique Christmas tree all your own!

Another popular design for the holiday season are the Swarovski Crystal Stacked Gifts.

These super cute little crystal packages are topped with a beautiful pewter bow and make great earrings and charms.

To make one Holiday Gift you will need (for earrings, double everything):

1 head pin

1 pewter bow

1 4mm Swarovski cube bead

1 8mm Swarovski cube bead

Steps:

Take your head pin and stack the components in this order:

1. large Swarovski cube bead

2. small Swarovski cube bead

3. pewter bow

Finish off you Swarovski Crystal stacked gifts with a basic loop at the top so that you can attach an ear wire to make an earring. Add these cute charms to bracelets or necklaces to get extra festive. Enjoy!
