Fancy Jewelled Hat Pins

I've made these in the past for some swaps and decided to join a few more swaps recently since they are fun and easy to make. I also made a few extras to sell. I'll probably put them up on Listia. If they do well there, I'll make more and put in my Bonanza shop.

Several are unmatched as I didn't have more than one of some types of beads. But, I think they turned out well!

Paper Beads

I've been making paper beads lately. It's relaxing. I have a tool that rolls the beads with a crank handle. Very nifty! I do have to measure and cut out the paper myself. I mainly use glossy paper from magazines and weekly ad inserts. I coat each bead twice with Royal Coat Decoupage Finish.

I will be making some jewelry and other things with the paper beads in the future.
