Annette,
 
This defintely sounds like something I will look to give a try.  It  would 
get my fingers out of the hot glue more.
 
I would like to make up at least 50 or 100 of these, but at the rate I am  
starting off with this I had my doubts.
 
First it took an awful lot of searching to find just the right things to  
make this.  Now that I located all that I need and was able to create it I  
couldn't find the pin backs online at the jewelry/beading supplies.  So I  
did convince my dh[for this one it took a lot of asking so don't think it 
stands  for dear husband], but I went to AC Moore's and bought 120 of these pin  
backs.  Now I have this gluing issue.
 
In spite of all this I will stick to it and get this all worked out.
 
No pattern and really not too much to go by except I felt this pin and  
thought I had to figure out and make it.  I couldn't find the beads in the  
size I needed nor the color the original pin was made with, so no one can say I 
 copied this as I touched it with my hands and fingers for maybe 15 minutes 
and  that was it.  I did have someone measure the length of the bead and it 
was  a little longer then what I was able to find.

What is it?  Where do you get it?

Last  of all I am thinking maybe 
it needs to be tacky and I can put it on both  surfaces and when I put it  
together it will glue together?   Anything out there like that?
