There isn’t a better time than now to learn how to make your own basic jewelry findings, like head pins.
Only, these go far beyond basic!
Knowing how to transform a bit of wire into decorative head pins lets you take your jewelry making to a whole new level of uniqueness.
I suggest you practice these techniques with inexpensive craft wire before moving on to more precious metals.
If you want to use color coated craft wire in your pieces, you might try dipping your pliers in Tool Magic to help prevent marring.
