I saw that and I thought you might like this...I know I said I would not post freebies anymore, but I don't consider this a freebie...
They also have a printable "Support America" ribbon!
Take care you all

FREEDOM PIN
Shared by Carol Kessler

Supplies:
One: 1-1/2" safety pin, nine: 1" safety pins, 35 tiny red beads, 26 white beads, 20 blue beads.

Directions:
Place the 1" safety pins onto the larger pin so that the smaller pins pass through the loop at the end of the larger pin and are unable to fall off. Follow the picture as a guide in order to place your beads onto the smaller pins.
Step One:
Begin by placing four blue beads onto the first pin on the left. Followed by alternating 1 red bead, 1 white bead, 1 red bead, and 1 white bead. Then close the pin. Follow 'Step One' for the next 4 safety pins.
Step Two:
For the remaining four safety pins alternate red and white beads. (5 red and 4 white per pin.)
Wear your Freedom Pin. Enjoy!

Thank you Jalex! This is just wonderful. I saw a woman wearing one of these pins in church yesterday and I just thought it was so cute!

Please don't stop posting. I don't know what your reasons are, but I have responded to several of your freebie posts. I think they are just great and you are providing us with many wonderful things!

Please don't let one or two bad apples spoil the whole bunch!

I just wanted to post that I went to WalMart on my lunch break and bought the supplies needed to make these pins. I can't wait to make one!

They were out of red beads so I'll have to try another store for the red beads.

The tribe has spoken and we don't want you to stop posting

Thank you,

, these are sooo cute.
jalex I'm sorry to hear that someone offended you, I did not read your post so I don't know much about it. It is ashame that some people can't keep their negative thoughts to themselves. I was brought up that, 'if you have nothing nice to say, don't say anything' and I still believe that. I also ignore negative remarks aimed at me,

. Just come back and post, and wear a suit of armor,
