I also made a star-shaped brooch. To make the tips I used a round tip tongs; the purple internal was done using another capsule (first I removed the silvery edge with the scissors). The purple internal and the brooch was glued with hot glue.

You need:

Step 1: Empty the Capsules

Cut the edge of the capsules with a cutter and empty them.

Step 2: Crush the Capsules

Crush the capsules with the hammer or something very durable (I used a jar).

Step 3: Fold in Half

Fold in half the capsules.

Step 4: Make the Holes

Hole the capsules with thumbtack.

Insert the wire and the beads in the hole.

Close with hook.
