Trinket Pins by Maya Road hold a special place in my heart because they are a dimensional embellishment ( I love things that 'pop'), they add sparkle and that certain "something special" to all of your projects, and they are so affordable! Trinket Pins are different than any other paper craft embellishment out there!And leave it to Maya Road to come up with so many useful designs for Trinket Pins - Gems, Crystals, Vintage Pearls, Flowers, Leaves (my fave;), Hearts, Stars, and coming soon - Christmas Trees!!! Thank you Maya Road...keep them coming because we can't get enough!
If you are like me, you love the Trinket Pins by Maya Road, but are unsure of how to incorporate them into all of your projects. Thankfully, Maya Road Design Team Member, Jennifer Beason, is chock full of ideas and has shared them in the Maya Road Newsletter.
All photos are courtesy of Jennifer Beason via the Maya Road Facebook Page/Newsletter. Check out Jennifer's Blog HERE for more inpsiration! Her designs will win your heart!
Jennifer's ideas for Trinket Pins include nesting a few behind flowers or ribbon, or sandwiching them between layers of chipboard so only the head of the pins show. Another "thinking outside the box" idea is to break off the heads of the pins and adhere them to your project by themselves. Just gently rock the head of the pin back and forth until is breaks off. I love how she used the Vintage Pearl Trinket Pin heads as an embellishment to her snowflake in the example at the right.Jennifer has even found a creative way to store all of her Leaf Trinket Pins by reusing a Maya Road tin. The fabulous photo is below, but check out her full tutorial HERE courtesy of the Maya Road Design Team Blog! I would love to be this organized and creative!!!!
We carry all of the Maya Road Trinket Pins in our store and always anxiously await the release of new ones. We will be getting these two new CHA additions shortly...just in time for the holidays!!!I am thinking of making a paper flower holiday wreath and using both of these new little beauties in it. What do you think???

I really like the leaves. Very pretty, and would look really neat as a tree on a LO, or a card.
ReplyDeletei have never see so many gorgeous pins, i just love them all
ReplyDeletebut my favorite is the leaves, you can put is behind a flower
hugs angelique
Very nice... I like to incorporate them into ribbon either as a way to attach the ribbon or as a way to pop by themselves or with the use of a tag.
ReplyDeleteDie sehen ja klasse aus, hinter Blumen sieht das besonders toll aus oder zwischen Schleifen.Die Blätter find ich genial.
ReplyDeletelg gila
I love pins too! My favorites are the vintage pearls and clear jewels! I like to add them to cluster of flowers.
ReplyDeleteI love using pins to add to ribbon, but I also love pinning paper to paper with them as well. Maya Road has some of the best pins out there ;D
ReplyDeleteI love the way she incorporated them into that owl. That is just gorgeous!! I'd like to use some on christmas ornaments and a friendship book I'm putting together for my bestie!
ReplyDeleteThanks - Jen
Love the leaves! I can think of so many great uses for them on my cards and layouts!
ReplyDeleteThese are awesome! I have never used any but the leaf would be perfect since I use flowers alot :)
ReplyDeletehi loving them all but i looked in the store and i like the hearts pearl ones i like to put them amongst flowers or through the centre of ribbon bows xx
ReplyDeleteThe leaves are so pretty but I really heart the pearls. So hard to just chose one! I love the classy-ness of the pearls it reminds me of my grandmother.
ReplyDeleteWow!! Those creations are beautiful!! I would use the pins on ribbon or a behind a flower :)
ReplyDeleteThank you for the chance to win.
Hugs

Love the pink pearl flowers, they are so cutsie and sparkly. Thanks for a chance to win. I know I would use them plainly on a ribbon.
ReplyDeleteWow, I really love these creations! I'm just starting at the whole scrapbooking experience, but I'm totally hooked. It seems great to use pins too.
ReplyDeleteI absolutely love the leaves. But the hearts are lovely too. I would use that like an arrow through a heart, I think. And the christmas trees would be lovely as some kind of tab on a christmas card.
That are all my ideas for now...
All are gorgeous, but pearl flowers are awesome. Hugs,moni
ReplyDeleteLOVE LOVE LOVE the leaf pins and I think they look fab behind a flower!
ReplyDeleteI have the pearl pins and LOVE them to pieces I have actually made me a couple of hair combs w/them as well as for jacket pins for the finishing touch always makes me feel like a Rockstar when people ask where did you buy that.. and I answer didn't I made it :)
ReplyDeleteThey look fab!! I've never tried to use anything like this, so would have to have a good think!
ReplyDeletethe green christmas trees and the leaves
ReplyDeleteI have never used trinket pins but I really like the leaves. Very versatile.
ReplyDeleteI love trinket pins so much that I'm very stingy about using them. But when I do, I like to push them through ribbon knots, either one or two at a time - they look so elegant.

If you like her pins, you should check mine out! I think they're great! www.partyonthepaper.blogspot.com
ReplyDeleteI love these pins. I have been looking for a way to make something like the Sparkle Burst brads that were big several years ago and now I found it. I would make a page embelly and use a pop dot to array the pins. I would cover the pop dot with some large jewel or embelly! Thanks!

I used the Maya Road pins with a row of silver black balls as a stamen for a grey flower with Pink Paislee's Queen Bee line ...awesome! Love the leaves too!
ReplyDeleteI love love love those turquoise and brown leaf trinket pins!!! They're fab!! =)
ReplyDeleteHugs, SannaS
I love the Christmas tree pins and would use them on Christmas cards and scrapbooking layouts. I haven't ever used them before so it would be fun to win and try them.
ReplyDeleteNow these look like a lot of fun! Great leaves.
ReplyDeleteI love using pins in my creations. The leaves are fantastic I can see so many uses for them....Maya Road does it again!
ReplyDeleteMy favourite Trinket pins would be the pink pearl flowers. You could even gather a bunch together, and make it look like a bouquet. Another way to use them is bend the pin a bit, and voila! a very 3-D embellishment.. great for doing trees, or a 3-D bouquet of flowers, or even flowers in a vase.
ReplyDeleteWow how could I pick just one? They are all so awesome!!! I do really like the leaves and I think that they would be prefect to accent a floral card.
ReplyDeleteluvv the leaves..best on flower cards and ...with my Wendy stamps...but...to be honest..I love em all! cher
ReplyDeleteAll of them are gorgeous! But my favorite are brown leaves. Awesome!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite Trinket Pins are the pink pearl flowers. I also love the red and the white ones. I'd use them as flower centers, and add to ribbons.
ReplyDeleteThe Crystal Stars are my favorites but I also like the leaves.
ReplyDeleteThey would be nice as 3D embellishments behind photos.
I love adding them as accents to my flowers. I have actually only used them twice and my local craft store doesn't even carry them :( I linked your candy up on my blog. Hopefully my name is drawn! Thanks!
ReplyDeleteI think I like the Leaf Trinket Pins best of all. Thanks so much for the inspiring ideas. I like adding pins to journalling cards to make them look 'pinned on' to the page.
ReplyDeleteI used the turquoise leaves as a little addition to the mannequins from the Maya Road mini chipboard set...painted them purple twilight, pool and citrus and then embellished them with ribbons, a little flower, bling and the leaf on one. The pool paint is a pretty good match!
