How to make pretty beaded pins!



How-to-make-pretty-beaded-pins

Sometimes when I feel like multi-tasking while watching TV, I make my own embellishments. Like these pretty beaded pins.


They are super easy to make. All you need a long pin, some pretty beads and glossy accents. I decide on a bead configuration I like, then add a little glossy accents to the contact points between the beads. I pin them upside down to a cushion over an open drawer till they dry.


Add them to cards for a lovely feminine touch. :)

P/s: Happy weekend friends! :)

  16. I make my own bead pins also. I usually splurge and buy the expensive beads when they are half off. I'm surprised how good plastic beads look. They are very pretty!
