I love hair pins. For both adults and children. Here's a quick way to make inexpensive fashionable hairpins for you, your child, or just to give away as a fun, easy gift.
Materials:
Brads/Cute embellishments
Decorative bobby pins
Felt
Paint
Paint brush
Needle nose pliers
Wire cutters
Hot glue gun
Scissors
Instructions:
Select the brad for your hairpin. Trim the metal tacks on the back of the brads and flatten the remaining pieces.
Cut a small circle of felt. Insert between the hairpin. Place some hot glue on the felt.
Place the flattened brad onto the hot blue and press, holding securely for a second or two. Let dry.
Adorable hairpins!
