Stickpin Tutorial for today!

Today I wanted to share with you how I make these little stickpins to add to your cards or projects here is another with a charm on the end
first you will need a stickpin and some beads and a little glue.


these beads are the ones I picked out for the first one


Now just add them in the order you wish too.




before I add the last one I add a drop of glue. Now you donot have to use glue they sell the clear rubber stoppers, I just havent been able to find any.LOL

Next if you want to add a charm get some wire and your charm and add it first before doing the beads.


then follow the same steps as I did above.


Hope you liked my mini tutorial!! :) Have fun!

Cheryl
