Yes, you need to use a clutch for safety, but the flat disk will keep most beads from coming off the other end. If you have a bead with a too-big-hole you can put a sequin on first to cover the hole. I just did a quick check on Etsy and there are several sellers offering Hat Pin Blanks there. They tend to be 5-7" long and come in silver or gold colour, though you could probably tint them with alcohol ink if you need another colour. Once you have all the beads on there that you want a rubber earring back will keep them from sliding down.</p>
