The longer the headpins, the more wraps you can get. I made the headpins myself, so I could make these ones about 6 inches long.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Depending on the feedback you all give me, I could film a tutorial for the members library on how to make this wire wrapped polymer clay flower bead.
