dressmaker's pin earrings

dressmaker's pin earrings

I've always loved fancy sewing pins. They look so satisfying in the pin cushion, just like candy sprinkles. This morning I realized they could make cute earrings. This project takes about 2 minutes and costs almost nothing.

You will need:
Small pliers
Wire cutters
2 dressmaker's pins

How to do it:
Snip the sharp ends off the pins. Leave as much length on the shaft as possible. Bend the shaft around to form the earring wire.

And you're done!
