Earring Instructions
Set an 8x6mm royal blue “opal” oval cabochon face down on a silicone sheet on your work surface. The silicone helps keep the stone in place and aids in setting.
Center a Snap-Tite® 8x6mm sterling silver 6-prong earstud setting over the cabochon, then push down evenly until the cabochon snaps into place.
Repeat Steps 1 and 2 for the second earring.
