Head pins with pearls

This is my very first tutorial here at Whiff of Joy, and I would like to show you how I make
my head pins with pearls.
I love them as embellishments on cards. 

You can use them along with flowers, ribbons or just put them behind the card stock!

Here is what you need:

Head pins

(I have used the one you can buy at Whiff of Joy)

Pearls

Pincers

Glue

Oasis

Here is my tray with pearls.

Step 1:

If the head pin is crooked, use your pincer to straighten it.

Step 2:

Start with treading pearls on to the head pin. 

Hold the last pearl on a little distance to the second last pear.

Step 3:

Add glue to the pin in between the two last pearls, 

and now push the last pearl up to the rest of the pearls.

Step 4:

Stick the head pin up side down in the oasis, to allow the glue to dry.

I have covered the bottom of the oasis with plastic wrap so the green stuff don't get all over my papers and stamps.

And voila;

here are the head pins ready to go on a card!

Here is my finished card with the head pins as part of the flower decorations:

  One last tip: 

Making head pins with pearls, is a great activity in front of the TV ;o) 

I hope you like my tutorial, have a wonderful day!
