Ladies, lets embellish our scrapbook, cards, and more. What we are creating are beaded scrapbook hat pins or safety pins. They are perfect to slip behind flowers, tie in a ribbon, embellish a photo, or tuck just about anywhere. They are adorable, easy to make, and light on shipping. I have posted a link below if you have no idea how to make them or have no idea what I am talking about.
For each hat pin group you sign up for below you be will required to make two pins per person in the group. I will TRY to keep the groups to about five people. So you would make about 10 hat pins per group depending on interest and ending group sizes. For the safety pin group, you can make two smaller safety pins or one large safety pin per group member. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to ask!! Please use clear glue, use nice beads, and have fun!!! You will be surprised how fast, fun, and easy these are to make!!
SHIPPING INFO- Please tape the ends of each hat pin down on a piece of scrap cardstock, poke into a small piece of styrofoam, or secure it in someway to prevent damage to the pins and postal workers : ) Then please bag the pins in groups of two for each group member and label each bag with your disname. Then place the small bags into a larger sandwich size/quart size ziplock labeled with your disname and group. Safety pin groups, just make sure the safety pins are closed before mailing. Bag the safety pins the same way. Please mail items in a new small bubble-wrap envelope to protect the beads. (If the envie is new, it should be in good enough condition for me to return your swap items to you in). Send the same amount of return postage that it cost you to send me the package (money or stamps either are fine). Include two extra stamps in case postage is extra and I will return any unused stamps/postage. Also please return a self addressed address label as well. I recommend using Delivery/Confirmation since we spend too much time working on our creations to have them lost at the PO. (However you decide to mail is fine, but no metered postage or click/ship sent to me because my PO will not take it). Once I close sign ups, I will PM you my address and shipping information. I also ask for you to PM me your real name, address, email, and phone number.
Here area a few inspiration pictures.
Here are some instructions on how to make them. Note you can use corsage pins or there are jewelry straight pins available in any jewelry section of a craft store that are cheap as well (and more flexible which is sometimes nice when tucking them behind things, because they will bend a little- they are called head pins). Either is fine!

Here are some links to safety pins photos. These are new to me too, but I have heard a lot of them and am excited to try them if anyone else is up for the challenge. Here are two pictures of how they can be used!
