Easy Hair Clips

I just love all the frilly little flower clips that are back in style. I have a whole stock of them from high school and am happy to bring them back out for a second turn around. But with any fad, I always want something new...I found these scrapbooking flowers at Michael's this week...on sale. And I had these clips in hopes of creating some of my own flower embellishments. But of course, I have lacked the motivation to put anything together. So how about a little hot glue and some already premade flowers to motivate ya...

Glue and done...I feel so accomplished...

If you want to pin it on your shirt you can but the silver shows...whatev...I still think it looks cute. No one will really notice.

So cute in the hair.

Easy, cheap, and homemade...sounds good to me!


Do you have any quick and easy tricks to share?

  7. Love these! I stuck a flower on a stretchy headband for my baby niece. I wish I would have had these clips so I could just glue the flower on the clip and then clip it to the headband.

  10. Smaller flowers are even cute glued to a headband for younger girls, They are even cute put on a piece of felt and add a pin back and have a neat pin to wear. I am now 78, but in my younger years I made earrings out of small pretty flowers - just added earring backs. Love your ideas

  15. If you want to hide the end of the clip on your shirt, add some green ribbon ends for a "leaf" Just a tip.

  24. So Uber Cute!!! Way to go with the creativity.
    Also, great post below, 'tips for thrifting'. You worked magic with all the items found and/or made over.

  25. My easy trick? I tie a bow with ribbon directly onto a coated hair band. Use the hair band to make a pony tail, and you are good to go! No tying ribbon around or it slipping off. It's all secure and prettifuls!

  35. I love making flower clippies! If you don't want the silver to show, you can line the clippies with 3/8" grosgrain ribbon that matches your flowers!
