Setting a Rivet on a fans is scary, taking a hammer to a delicate fan you can damage it check out how it’s done. Here is an easy way with materials and tools that most people have or can get.

What you need:

  1. two roundel beads
  2. a head pin or a hatpin cut down
  3. pair of wire cutters
  4. rounded nose jewelry pliers.
