TIPS:
* Use an extra fine point permanent marker to darken the stamped word on the trinket pin.
* Once the posie is assembled, use a few drops of glue to hold the flower pieces together.
* Tightly wrap the wire around the closed side of the pin. Wrap less tightly as you go, creating a casual, loose wrap. Be sure not to over-wrap the pin. If your wire wrapping is too thick, you may have trouble fitting the jump ring and possibly closing the pin properly.
