Heart Pins

Last night at doll club we learned some of the basics of wire bending. Since it was the day before Valentine's we used the wire pieces to decorate hearts. I made two hearts ...

These will be going to a couple of girls in the Embellished Circus for their Member of the Month gifts. I hope they like them! Spirals are about the easiest shape to bend - just take your wire (20 gauge is good) and make a loop with your round nose pliers. Hold the loop with the pliers and just bend the wire around the loop. You can have an open spiral or a closed spiral depending on the distance you leave between the pieces.

WOW! Judi, the hearts turned out really lovely. The one on the right is my fave, but they are both wonderful.

Wow, those are wonderful! I'll have to try wire on my next heart pin . . . I made one for a valentine swap, but didn't think of anything like this; I just beaded it.
