Thanks again for my wonderful stocking and items. Would you be willing to share the instructions for making the beaded needle threader? It is very nice and I would like to make some for friends. Thanks

Sure, I'm glad you like your goodies.

I use the wire from cheap needle threaders.
Thread your beads on a 3" head pin & then use crimp beads to pinch the wire onto the end of the head pin. If you look at yours you'll see how I bent the ends of the wire back into a second crimp bead to make it harder to pull out.

I also make them to sell if you decide you'd rather buy them than make them just let me know the colors you'd like Smile
