Super Easy & Quick DIY Stick Pins & Paper Clips

[@donnacarraway9182]

OmG, just watched this video again after all these years and it is still so relevant! Yes, I made that very mini album and still love it! Thank you!! 💕

[@lindaellis1584]

Absolutely a great idea for our journals. Thank you for sharing.

[@allisonkeevers6076]

Hi Jen. I know you made this 5 yrs ago but I only saw it today !! I don't do journals etc, but your work caught my eye for a different craft. I love to make hairsticks. I make them from chop sticks, dowel rods, paint brush handles, sticks etc.I'm going to take your decorated stickpin ideas and use them on the ends. I will either drill a hole in the centre of the broad end and glue in the pins, or thread onto a long wire that I will wrap around in swirls and curves. I love dangles on my sticks too. I can definitely see matching earrings as well, and chandelier style earrings with 3 pins hanging from a circle, with chain between them going up to a much smaller circle, then up to an earring wire. Thank you for the inspiration.

[@calicrafter2697]

I am a new subscriber. I wish I could like this video twice! I have all kinds of beads and jewelry supplies but never thought to use in my mini albums/ journals. Ingenious! Thanks so much for generously sharing your knowledge. Off to watch more of your videos...

[@gila1959]

It gives such a ‘bite’ ,such a character to the journal...bful !

[@MB-cv4ff]

👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 Adoro su trabajo hecho con tanto detalle. Felicidades 💕💕🍀🌺🌸

[@shannonelliott4046]

Such adorable accents for my junk journal. Thank you for sharing and I love your junk journal you used for these.❤

[@chaselip]

Such a fun video. I used to make jewelry. Still have everything. Need to get back to making things for journals and albums.💝💝

[@rncine]

I have all the jewelry making,now with your easy tutorial I can make some items. Thank you ever so much.

[@sharron_lee-ette]

I love your tutorial. You have a very “real” way of communicating that frankly cracks me up. LOL The ability to laugh at yourself is priceless. Thank you so much for sharing. Hugs, Sharron

[@mackinacdog]

this is awesome, I have to do that on my albums. Thanks so much for teaching us. Great tutorial. Thanks so much for sharing.

[@wizardoris55]

I use the rubber earring back and push it all the way up on my stick pins , tight against the beads with a tiny bit of glossy accents for glue to hold the beads in place while the glue dries, then slide the rubber earring back, back down to cover the sharp pin... I use the stick pins on front of my albums in clusters like a bouquet of flowers..

[@sueflynn5671]

Love these cutesy things. I will try them.

[@sandracook9600]

Jen I am a jewelry maker and I think you did awesome. Your stick pins are very cute. Love your videos. Thanks for taking the time to make them. Your journals are just precious. Love em.

[@claudettemiskell2763]

I'm a jewelry maker whose daughter is named Jen, and she also makes journals. I can say for someone who isn't a jewelry maker, you did a fine job. No one would ever know. Good job Jen! Blessings❣

[@claudettegulley4181]

I agree she does an amazing job with all of these things!🎀🖇🎀🎨🖌🙂

[@gawieber]

Exactly! She did a fine job.

[@luvcreatincardsnkeepsakes]

I love ❤️ the adorable charm pin sticks that you have created Jen TFS xx

[@katericochran4634]

I agree also. I make jewelry and hadn't thought to use the things she used to make stick pins. Great lesson. I love learning new things.

[@InLightsify]

Words can't describe the gorgeous journal!

[@IreneVezicanin]

Очень красиво! Лайк от меня!

[@sandrapudoff]

I love the way you attached the quilting pin to your glossy accents bottle! Saves hunting one down when it is clogged (everytime). Headpins bend with pliers, round or flat. TFS!

[@lolitapoly123]

Beautiful and adorable little things. 💖💖💖💖💖🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

[@carolharris8459]

Note... if you watch and buy one of the inexpensive jewelry making kits from Michaels (mine was 12.99) you get all the tools, jewelry wire, jumprings, beads of several sizes, and all sorts of useful things... and then you have all you need to start playing with making these... so much fun...

[@danielleagland5601]

Love them all! Rather than the clear bead to stop the beads moving, you can get crimping beads, you squish them around the wire and they are designed for ending this sort of thing.

[@lindabeasleybrewer1777]

Absolutely adorable.

[@julie-annadams4914]

So cute, I’ve gotta make some pretty well. I’ve got everything I need to make them and I didn’t know what to do with it. What I had now I know wow❤ thank you so much for showing everybody

[@lynnrex9996]

These are so pretty thanks for showing all these simple blingy pieces to add yo our journals!

[@laurieurbanoski452]

I almost think I want to make this one again, after I finish my ephemera keeper. The choices are endless. I have all your books minus all the choices of patterns. But working on it. I started doing your books early 2018. I also got a friend to follow you recently. I only have two friends that do paper crafts. Love your work.🥰

[@carlamarlene2927]

that album cover is absolutely adorable!!! love those colors.

[@valo-raewells9079]

I have the T pins and lace and wood laser cut outs so I went right to work and made 4 stick pins for journals. Your ideas are awesome as I am overwhelmed with so many craft items that it’s almost depressing. Thanks so much

[@mshanks2257]

Thank you so much for sharing this idea, absolutely love it and can't wait to make these.

[@r.c.miller6161]

Such a pretty, inexpensive way to dress up a project! Love your enthusiasm.

[@mgcarson2003]

I have to admit, that I have enjoyed watching your video. You’re so easy to listen to and watch 😊. I have to smile and laugh 😆 a few times. Thanks for the awesome video. I was laying down watching random videos but I liked your video a lot. 😊Really cute the way you say things. Made my evening.. thank you.. 😍

[@rosieharpin9058]

you are so clever love watching

[@1evelynvasquez]

Enjoyed this tutorial so much. All of these embellishments are adorable.

[@carriechambless]

Very cute ideas. Thanks for the tutorial.

[@judithcampbell-jones7745]

Just watching this share. So much fun to watch. Your stick pins and paper clips are just fantabulous. Looovvee them!

[@annanipper5726]

I learned so much! Thank you for all your work.

[@kellercrucita550]

How sweet and lovely projects. Thanks so much for sharing!

[@susanhunter8272]

Too cute!!! Thanks for sharing!!!

[@aprilcarter749]

Great ideal you did a good job for someone who doesn’t make jewelry!! I love making journals & never thought about the stick pins. TFS, till next time.

[@TexJudy]

Thank you for sharing and showing how simple it really is to add charms and dangles, etc. A very nice finishing touch. I will try this after watching. Thanks again! ~Judy~

[@joanndankovchik4861]

LOVELY, all so lovely, Thanks for the inspiration, hope to make some!!!

[@12lesflo]

You are terrific, I enjoyed your tutorial so much!!!!!!

[@CandaceChira1]

These are so adorable. I love these and can't wait to make some.

[@christinecrow1410]

I use rubber earring backs to hold beads on. They work great.

[@sandrasneed3180]

I love all of your work.... too sweet

[@jenofevedesigns]

Thank you, Sandra!

[@sueflynn5671]

This was so exciting. I have a few of those items and going to try. I do gift tags so hope to incorporate one of your cutey things. I will check out some of your other videos as I just now found you tonight. I am generally a fabric crafter and quilter but trying to do small items. I have a customer that loves my cards and tags so here I go. Want to make a pocket tag.

[@kathyrivera435]

Your passion in everything you do shines brightly! Your art is like no other! GORGEOS! Your talent is so unique! I love everything you create! Using stick pins in this way is pure genius! By the way, what you were using to snip is called a wire cutter. Thank you for sharing!

[@mrsdscraftdesk]

I realize this is coming way late to the party, but those T pins are also used in dissections in Science labs. They can be ordered from any lab supply company for fairly cheap.

[@TheJournalCottage]

That’s what I’ve been using the pearl floral pins from actually “wedding section” beautiful!

[@juliemilliron849]

Wow. This was a fantastic video. I love when you show these things, like when you showed making your own spray colors. The fact that you just play and come up with them, is so creative. Thank you.

[@leslievaughanmorton8374]

Thanks for sharing. Need to get out my jewelry stash to see what I have to create some stick pins. Great idea .

[@Oh2bnor1]

Love all of these... so cute

[@isabelbustos2293]

I love your little trinkets. I think i can make some out of my old jewelry. I would love a video on your journal how to make it. None of mine look like that

[@knc1960]

Jennifer, this latest album design and all the embellishments are unbelievably adorable!!! Just love ya girl! Thanks again for sharing!!!

[@judywest562]

Love this idea...Love these stick pins...the paper clips are so cool! 💖

[@ClareCreationsAL]

The paper clips with one charm are so sweet! I added one to my first journal. Love that you gave an option for the sharp ends! That’s what held me back from using those pretty corsage pins I have!! You could even glue a bead right above the earring back too!! Thanks so much for sharing!!

[@NancyWethington]

Love these embellies! Sharing your video.

[@jenofevedesigns]

Nancy Wethington Thank you!!

[@carolharris8459]

Love your videos... thanks.....

[@sewfancynancydesign5970]

These are fantastic! I just love how you use so many things you already have in your stash.

[@charlottebeseke5596]

You are very talented! Beautiful work!

[@juneribbons5196]

I have some t pins and some pearl teardrop pins thatch can use to make some of these. I love your rose one. Fiona Jennings also makes some beautiful stick pins. She was the first crafter who I saw making stick pins Hat pins come with their own caps. They look just like ear ring backs

[@deannabarnes609]

Omg!!! These are gorgeous!!! Thanks so much for sharing! I can't wait to make some!!!!

[@rfranksensey]

Great easy to follow tutorial!

[@nicoledemana]

I don't know if anyone else has thought of this but on the eye pin leave it above the bow and add hanging beads!! Nicole UK

[@worldofgoldenmoths]

Yes an eye pin, beautiful!

[@nanjacobson9025]

Cute tutorial! Thanks for sharing. The small clear beads usually come on strings of other beads and used as spacers. They are seed beads and come in different sizes. The "snippy things" you referred to are wire cutters. I make jewelry and am just getting into journals. Love your journal.

[@00001965st]

Lv this idea,, beautiful,, can’t wait to try this,,, I too live n Ky , northeastern

[@l.nadinebrockharris2022]

[@cynthiaakacyndsmith6539]

The bows are so stinkin’ cute!

[@waukonstandard]

LOVE how you decorated the pins! Awesome ideas!

[@jmfrmr]

You're better with wire than I am. I hate wire yet I'm making boho beads for a friend with steam coming out of my ears and words leaving my lips. Gorgeous book by the way.
