i like these... do you glue a pin needle on the back ? and do you bend the needle from wire, or can one buy these ready to use ?

They would probably make nice ornaments as well. Good job on the carving and finishing.

Neat little bear pins. Nice job, it's great to see the different kind of stock like that. Thanks!

Kenny,
Thanks! I'm a softie for teddy bears myself. Especially with EMS people giving them out to kids and seniors when they've been through a tough time. I think your son or son-in-law (not sure which one) knows about that

Vicki,
Thanks! I need all the help I can get with the ladies! LOL

Bart,
Thanks! I'm waiting to see the look on my grandniece's face when she sees them. She'll be 11 in a couple of weeks.

Doris,
Thanks! The link below is a picture of pins I made. The glue is a two part epoxy. The pin backs are bought from a crafts store.

Terry,
Thanks! Yes, I thought of that. I also want to make magnets out of them too. That's why I'm making them in different sizes.
