Firstly we will brush our moulds with some talcum powder so that the hot glue sticks to the mould and make sure your hot glue gun is hot so that the glue flows easily . Here I am showing three shapes star, rose and flower , you can choose any shape but make sure the shape is big enough that the head of the push pin fits completely inside the shape boundary.

After Prepping we will fill the whole shape with hot glue and then insert the push pin and then again add some hot glue to the pushpin so that it gets secured properly and let it dry completely. Here we have to be careful while handling the push pin so use a tweezer to hold the pin so that you don't hurt your hand.

Final Touches and Colouring

Carefully remove the push pin and cut any excess hot glue and paint it as you like ( I have used a thermocol block and inserted the pin in it so that I can paint easily). Here I have added a leaf to the rose pin, to do this just put a little bit of glue on the leaf and stick it to the pushpin beneath the rose.

After the paint has dried our colourful pushpins are ready to be used 🙂
