ABSTRACT:
A method of making a jewelry item in the form of an earring having an earlobe hoop which extends through a pierced ear and a dangling portion having a small loop thereon suspended from the earlobe hoop. The dangling portion is an elongated member formed from a handle portion of an acupuncture needle and the hoop is formed by bending the needle shaft portion. The item used is a needle used in clinical acupuncture practice with the material usually being silver, but in some instances being other metals such as gold, platinum, copper or stainless steel with the handle usually being made of finely woven thread silver overlayed on the shaft. The needle shaft portion cut or clipped from the handle shaft portion with a small loop being formed at the distal end of the handle shaft portion. The needle shaft is then bent into a one-piece earlobe hoop which is inserted through a pierced hole in the earlobe and is also inserted through the distal loop formed on the handle portion.
