Can you please do a video on how to turn a push pin (the one with the earring back you says you haven't looked into yet) into a pedant.
I love this. I was just going through some of my brooches that I s e Odom wear, thinking about giving them away. Now, I just ordered the hangers and will start wearing a few of the ones my Grammy gave me. Thank you so much!! I needed this. 💕💖
I just have a idea to add with the pin flopping forward. I would use a bit of low temp hot glue to stabilize it in place . Then peel if off when one wants to wear it as a pin . Just use caution with you pieces if you don't think it the glue will come off don't do it .
Thank you for the video plan to do this with a brooch.
Awesome idea! Tfs Glad you found the video helpful. 🙂
I love the cat on the swing!
Isn’t it adorable? I really should wear it occasionally!
I used to collect and wear pins in my early 20s. I've always liked them and been starting a collection again and I love victorian style pins, pretty much any victorian style jewelry I like lol. Bonus if it is real vintage and I do have a few pieces I happened to find in the jewelry jars some thrift stores will sell.
😀
thank you so much for adding captions and linking other methods!! i enjoyed this video:-)
You are very welcome! :-) Thanks for the nice comment.
I have a small rose pin I had gotten from my great grandmother, she has passed away now and I miss her very much, I'd love to wear her brooch unfortunately the pin part has broken and in trying to figure out how I can turn it in to a necklace.
I have a lot of school themed brooches from when I was a teacher, as well as pretty decorative ones of flowers and animals. I never wear them anymore mostly because they would leave a hole in my shirt unless it was something knit, or had an open weave. This is a great idea though. I think I’d actually use a charm blank (I’m completely blanking out on what they’re called - but it’s a flat back with a loophole on top that can be glued onto polymer clay or anything else to turn it into a charm) and glue it on and possibly just remove the pin altogether. That would definitely solve the problem with it leaning. If you wanted a less permanent option, maybe you could hot glue the brooch to the bottom of the converter and then it can easily be removed if you wanted it to be a brooch again. 💜
Do you mean a glue on bail like these? amzn.to/2Ldfugb That's a great idea!
Yes!! That’s exactly what I was talking about! 😊
Excellent! Thank you.
You are very welcome, Pam! Happy creating 🙂
God ur amazing dear I had this idea but because of wobbling situation and was searching finally a video that solved my issue just with ear thingy brilliant 🔥thank you so much
I’m glad the video helped you! Happy creating. 😀
Yarn will fix the floppy brooch-pendant problem. Just wind the yarn around each side, like we used to use yarn/angora to wear those class rings.
Thanks for the tip!
Good idea! I think putting a earring back on the tip of the pin after you close it might help it from snagging your clothes when it moves.
Good idea!
I recently received a dragonfly pin from my aunt, it was my grandmothers who had passed away several years ago. And I Google how to make it into a necklace. Thank you for this video. Maybe I can find at local craft store. 😀 I wonder if I can use beads for spacers?
I’m glad the video was helpful, Elizabeth! I haven’t been able to find these findings anywhere except online. You can definitely use beads as spacers.
I have a beautiful dragonfly brooch too. I love it, but have never worn it. That's why I'm here too. My great aunt Rosalie, my favorite aunt had one. It took me 30+ years to find one like hers. Now that I have it, I need to wear it, but I seldom wear brooches. I do wear necklaces though.
Neat ideas ! I’ve got numerous broach’s , all sorts of colors and animals 😁 . Don’t even look at them , tragic .
Maybe you'll get more use out of your brooches now, Tracy!
what is this jewelry finding called? And where can we get them?
Brooch converters, as it says in the title. :-) Links to products are at my blog which is linked in the description box and in the upper right of the video, the little "i."
Hi Sandy,, I've had brooches where the bar loosed, and came undun,and wondered how to turn it into a pendent,,but never worked out, I do have a beautiful rhinestone owl brooch from pave, where the bar came off,now from watching your video, have an idea of using the small filigree bails, as they have a loop at the top of the bail, and come in silver gold and bronze,mabey you know the ones I mean,, could slide on brooch bar and loop used to attach a chain
So glad I was able to give you some helpful ideas, Angela!
Keepsake Crafts by Sandy Huntress Hi Sandy you always give me great ideas,🌹🌺🌹🌺😘
Awwww, thanks. :)
Keepsake Crafts by Sandy Huntress Your very welcome, I'm looking at the natures treasures video now, second time round, I would love to do this one but can never get the right resin,,, the only resin I got before was in a big can, a d comes with a 10 mm bottle of hardner , hated that stuff, and had to use a room that wasent used,, as it was so strong smelling, never again will I get that one, it was the only one in stock in Cork, so I thought I would give it a try, that was a few years ago bought 2 to 3 years ago,, as I like to get the the plastic type bottles of part one and 2, near me, not easy to get unless you have to get online I have silicone feather moulds,and flower ones, but miss the proper resin!!!!🌺🌹🌺🌹
I still have a quart container of the resin that gets mixed with a catalyst. It's been kicking around for years, but I can't bring myself to use it. It was such a pain getting the measurements right, often stayed sticky and hubby tells me it stinks something awful (I can't smell but I'm sure it's not good for me.) One of these days I'll find a good outdoor project for it and use it up.
I have a pin with a clasp in the back, like the one she said she had not looked into, and I’d like to convert it to a pendant but I can’t find any good converters anywhere
Erick, can you give me the time stamp in the video when that appeared? I can try to look into it for you.
@@SandyHuntress 2:56 I have the same question. Thanks.
@@SandyHuntress I have two of them I would like to turn into pendants please.
Did you ever figure out how to do it? I can't find anything nor a video on this channel that helps with these kind of pins 😭
Great Idea!! Thank you for sharing. ✳️💜✌️☯️❇️
Hope you found it helpful!
Keepsake Crafts by Sandy Huntress I did. I wear allot of hats. I have pins of all sorts on them. I'm just an old hippie. The pins I want to make into jewellery I remove the clasp part, not the pin, and make my loop out of the pin. I like your idea, but I'm concerned as you are about the movement. I'm thinking of a solution. Haven't found one yet. I recently found your channel and I'm vocal so you'll see my name again. Thank you for making the videos where I can learn. I'm a late starter. (Long story). Thank you for taking time to write me. Enjoy your day. ❇️☯️💜✌️✳️
Welcome to the channel, Connie! Be sure to read other folks comments as they have lots of good ideas, too. 😁 Happy creating!
Lol I came here because of a brooch I have I want to make a pendant, and it's the same as the brooch from the upper left in the picture! Only my painted girl has a slightly fancier setting and the painting is signed. I'm not sure who the artist is though, it's so small.
Pinkie is a painting by Thomas Lawrence. It was done in 1794, and is often seen side by side by with Gainsborough‘s Blue Boy. They were favorites of my grandmother. The brooch was hers. I never have worn it, but do think of her when I look at it.
Hope you enjoy wearing yours!
@@SandyHuntress Thanks! I didn't know anything about the art, as I found mine at an antique jewelry table at a gun show. It is one of my favorite brooches (along with some cute antique bees) though, and I've been wanting to turn it into a pendant as I always feel uncomfortable using the pins on old brooches since they can break.
Oh no! That antique looking painting pin is NOT TOO large to wear as a single statement necklace. On a heavy matching chain. Choker or just below that length. It’s gorgeous!!!
Thanks, Suzanne! 🙂
Wire Wrap the kitty on the swing.
Hmmmm, I'm trying to picture how to do it. Thanks for the idea!
ugh, i wanted to do the opposite and didnt realize until 4 min in
You could attach a pin back (found at craft stores) to your pendant to convert it the other way.
Woodglut Blueprints has some very useful blueprints with all the details you need.
I looked up Woodglut but they had no info about converting a brooch to a pendant
these are not pins, they are brooches
Sure, ok.
