  Step 1

  Use your wire cutters to cut the head off of the straight pin.
  You can cut off the needle-point too, if you want.

• 

  Step 2

  Use your round nose pliers to bend the wire bit into a circle.

  If you don't have round nose pliers, you can use needle nose pliers (or physical strength) to bend the wire around something skinny and round (such as a skewer)

• 

  Step 3

  You should have a wire circle with one or two non-bend ends.

• 

  Step 4

  Use your wire cutters and cut off the non-bent ends.

• 

  Step 5

  Ta-da! You've got a jump ring for all your jewelry-making (or other) needs!

Thanks Amy -- I'm going to pocket that idea. I'm sure I will need to use it one of these days. I have never thought of using a pin in a pinch.
