Make Art Monday!

Not only are these pins fun and easy to make, but they’re a great way to use up your small quantities of left over beads from other projects. The mesh tops are domed, and come with a pin backing that has prongs to fasten the top on.

These close-ups make the pins look much bigger than they are: the metal frames are only about an inch across:
