Pink Beaded Heart Pin

The next one is dark and light pinks with a little silver and sequins thrown in for fun!  I'm really enjoying making these.

Turquoise & Earth Tones Beaded Heart Pin

After beading the white heart pin with TINY beads, I decided to give my eyes a break and bead the next pin with larger beads...

New Beaded Heart Pin

This one took approximately 8 hours to complete over 3 days. I finished it off today at the flea market.  Beads used were size 13 and 15 seed beads and size 15 crystal clear charlottes (nearly impossible to see on a white background), and freshwater pearls.  I used Nymo thread on the face of the pin, and Fireline for the edging.  Two pieces of Lacy's Stiff Stuff glued back-to-back and felt for the backing.  I'm happy with how it turned out.
