Cannon Cocker Posted May 18, 2019 Posted May 18, 2019 My 9 year old daughter found this clip on the ground thinking I could make something out of it. I told her it was to small to use them I felt bad......... Help me think of some things I could use it for please! Quote
Cedar Crest Forge Posted May 19, 2019 Posted May 19, 2019 On that theme..a base for a hair piece. Attach a simple barrette on one side, and a flower on the other, with paint that matches the flower. Maybe have her help you add sprinkles and gems, from the craft store. Quote
Cedar Crest Forge Posted May 19, 2019 Posted May 19, 2019 It would probably be a missed opportunity to not get her involved. Maybe have her put the metal piece in the forge as part of the process, so you get a blacksmith out of her in a few years. Quote
Cannon Cocker Posted May 19, 2019 Author Posted May 19, 2019 I like your idea cedar Crest! I do get the kids out in the smithy with me quite a bit. Maybe I'll let her be the striker to flatten it out too. Quote
Glenn Posted May 19, 2019 Posted May 19, 2019 Drill a hole in a piece of wood to correspond to the hole in the metal. Glue the metal over the hole and call it a pencil holder. Quote
bluerooster Posted February 1, 2020 Posted February 1, 2020 That piece would require me to use my body hammers, and turn it into whatever it wants to become. I see a heart shaped pendant with a center stone there. It just wants to come out of hiding. Quote
BubbaNash Posted April 28, 2020 Posted April 28, 2020 as you picture... take the sides in a bit, flare out the corners and insert a shiny rock in the middle and you have a butterfly or moth? weld it to a stick and she can put it in a little potted flower. Quote
ThomasPowers Posted April 28, 2020 Posted April 28, 2020 Since the original post was May 18 2019; perhaps it would be better to ask what he did do with it? Quote
BubbaNash Posted April 28, 2020 Posted April 28, 2020 agreed, but if he is anything like me its likely the item is still sitting on his dresser... So what did you do Cocker Quote
ThomasPowers Posted April 28, 2020 Posted April 28, 2020 Hey; I've almost completed a project I started 16 + years ago and hope to have it done in another couple of weeks max! Quote
hheneg Posted May 8, 2020 Posted May 8, 2020 You could melt a piece of old coke bottle into the hole, polish it up and make a pendant or something to hang in the window Quote
