How to make your own burlesque pasties

Step 4 Attach grommets & tassels

Insert your grommet with the biggest side on the outside of your pasty. Place your pasty point-side down on top of a piece of craft foam on top of a hard surface. The foam will prevent the front side of the grommet from scratching when you hammer it.

Rest the grommet smasher on the inside of the grommet and gently tap with a hammer until the inside splits like a flower. Hammer gently so you don't warp the front of the grommet.

Insert your tassel through the front hole and sew to the fabric inside of the top.
