These projects are a cost effective way to create great looking pieces and can even be done by children. Make zipper pulls, earrings and necklace charms in a range of styles. Personalize them with your favorite colors, charms or initials.

The instruction for making pulls are about the same -

1. Slide three to six beads onto a 2-inch head pin, starting with the smallest bead first.
2. Follow these with wing beads and one more bead.
3. Loop the pin above the head and trim the excess wire.
4. Open a jump ring or split ring and attach it to the head pin.
5. Slide ring onto a chain, zipper pull or ribbon.

These are NOT my original concept! I do not know who started making them. I had heard about them, and could not resist making some for my table, and to show you how! If anyone knows the originator of these little cuties, please PLEASE let me know! I would love to give credit!

These make great gifts for folks who come over for dinner, especially ones with the person's initials or childrens birthstones. People love to get them as gifts, and you can even make matching charm bracelet.
