How do you make a broache? I found some findings on bellafindings that you can put together somehow I think, but I canīt figure how. Glue? Soldering? Another way? Hereīs what I found http://www.bellafindings.com/jewelsc...Category=10639

Hi Mervione,

Yep, those are the parts. I think they would have to be soldered on to a metal base to really hold very well. I wouldn't trust glue. Then you could wire on the elements you have chosen.

You may also find at one of the online beading supply dealers a bar pin with loops to attach some drops of your choice. I found a couple at www.artbeads.com. However, it is set so I was unable to copy the photos to show here. Good luck!

so many pearls, so little time

How do you solder? Is it anything you can do yourself fairly easily?

And did you mean this one? http://us.st11.yimg.com/us.st.yimg.c..._1998_12576084
