I love this idea..pretty and practical all in one. The heart beads look so festive for Valentines Day! I will be on the look out for pretty beads now. You are one smart lady! Thanks for sharing your wonderful idea!

See you at the next guild meeting ole pal of mine.

What a unique idea and besides being able to find your pins they will look pretty in a unique pin cushion.

Doing this project I put a little puddle of glue on a paper plate and used toothpicks to dab the glue on the pin. First I put glue on the pin just under the glass ball and pushed the bead on it. When that was partially dry, I put a dab of glue on the pin just under the new bead for good measure (I was anxious to continue the project).

I've heard crafters use E6000 glue. It comes in a silver tube. It seems to work well. I bought mine at Hobby Lobby. I'm sure Michael's and other stores have it. Don't forget your 40% off coupon.

What a terrific idea. You should market/sell those. They are just beautiful.

I think that the monster who eats socks in the dryer likes pins as appetizers. Mine seem to always disappear:D

Great idea! To be honest while sewing last night I had 5, yes 5 heads come off pins when I pulled them out! This would give me something to grab onto and make it easier to grab from my magnet bowl too. Thanks.
