Sharon, I used to make some, using 26 or 24 gauge sheet, a piece
about 1.25 inches long and perhaps 1/4 inch wide. Of course, round
off the corners and make the ends and edges smooth (so they won’t
dig into the ear). After doing any texturing or drilling, I formed
the ear cuff around a 7/16 inch dowel. The ends should be about 1/8
inch apart.
If you’ve drilled a hole in it for hanging danglies, just make sure
they’re not too heavy. Two small jump rings for attaching the item
works better (I found) than one or none. it gives more fluidity.
Google “ear cuffs” and enjoy what they show. Wire ear cuffs are lots
of fun, too.
