Cute Homemade Stick Pins!

I love making little embellishments for my projects, and lately I've been on a felt kick.  Soooooo I decided to use some of my small dies and make my own stick pins.  They are super easy and I store them in a spool wrapped in felt to use at a later date. 
I used a couple of Papertrey Ink dies to cut the little birds and hearts.  I wanted a bit of sparkle, so I "painted" them with Tattered Angels Glimmer Glam.
I made another group of embellished stick pins using some Spellbinder's dies I had on hand.  Just stick the pin through it vertically, add a few rhinestones, pearls, twine, or tag to finish it off! 

I just think they are so fun, and I can't wait to use them on my next project! 
Do you make your own embellishments?  I would love to see what you've created!  
Have a great day!
Off and running this morning!
