Create beautiful pendants from eye pins

You could use an eye pin as a tool to make a charm or pendant, but you could also make a charm or pendant from the eye pin itself. You could for example fix eye pin-pendants to ear wires in order to create one-of-a-kind earrings.

Step 3:
You can now use the rest of the pin to create a beautiful figure beneath the bead. You might need more than one try (and more than one eye pin) to make an eye pin-pendant, but practice makes perfect. You could for example try to make a spiral shape beneath the bead using round nose and flat nose pliers.
