I have progressed from Glue Bottle Pins to these lovely Bag Charms and I am really pleased with the way they have turned out.
I have been practising the loops and knots needed to make them, and working with wire is not that easy, as my fingers can tell you.
I bought the key rings and Lobster clasps from Amazon and I chose the middle size clasp as it was not too big or small.
I have used the chain, jump rings, beads and silver ware all from Amazon and I have added as many links as I could at the end of the post.
The beads I already had, and I have literally hundreds of them since my last foray into making hatpins.
Both of these are made as Thank You gifts for the ladies who take care of Ruby at playschool every week.
I have used small alphabet beads to add their names to the key holders and I have done them in different colours.
I am hoping that that they will like them when I give them to each of them.
I have enjoyed making these and I have more lined up for my family members.
They are a good way for me to relax at the end of the day and they are something I can do and watch TV at the same time.
I will show you the others as they are made. What do you think of them ??
More tomorrow ...
Hugs xx
