I made this brooch as a Secret Santa gift for a colleague at Tasmanian Regional Arts. It is the best thing I've made in years.

Materials: blue anodized safety pin, white plastic flower shaped button bound to pin with blue anodized wire; two silver wires suspended from pin ending with pink star-shaped shell beads and a silver plated heart bead with burred star motif.
