Does anyone make dangly fused earrings? What do you use for the findings? Do you glue the fused piece on the dangly part? And where do you get them?? Thanks in advance!

I find the easiest thing to do is drill a hole in them and then use a piece of wire to create a bail to attach to the ear wire.
There are glue on bails for earrings, but you still need a small jump ring to attach them to the ear wires. Just search for "Glue on bails"..they are pretty easy to find.

There is also a diamond grinder head that fits into your grinder that is used for cutting a slot all the way around the glass. It is then easy to wire wrap and attach a hook
