Easy Spring Hair Clips Part 2

This giveaway is closed!
We have a winner!
comment #16-Skye
Skye email me and I'll get those sent out to you!


As promised!
I showed you how to make easy flower hair clips made with scrap booking brads about a week ago. I promised I would show you how to make this little sweetheart below.















So here we go! I'm so excited!
(Oh, and you will have a chance to win all of these clips!)





















I got these babies at Joann's, in the scrap booking embellishments section.

This set has the sweetest little cupcakes, strawberries, and orange slices you have ever seen!

















Here is the glue I like to use for gluing the ribbon onto the clip. It's called Farbi-Tac, you can find it at Joann's as well.














For the bigger embellishments like the cupcakes, I like to use the alligator hair clips. You can get these at places like Sally's Beauty.

Measure and cut the needed amount of ribbon for the size of your hair clip. Put a nice line of glue all the way down the middle of the ribbon.

Starting with your clip open glue your ribbon face down, and bring it around the bottom of your clip...














keep following the hair clip around with your ribbon. Open the clip and bring your ribbon under.














It will look like this!

*tip-if your little one has fine hair these clips don't stay as well. cut a rectangular piece of felt and glue it to the inside of your clip so it won't slip in your little darlin's hair.















Take your embellishment...















tie a ribbon through the two holes.














Then just hot glue it to your ribbon covered hair clip!














Here are some sweet strawberry clips I made. They are smaller so I used the snap clips like I did in my first hairclip tutorial.

I hot glued the berries to a flower, and then onto the hair clip.















After your done making your clips take some card stock, cut two vertical slits for each clip, and you have yourself a nice little way to display these as gifts, or even to sell!

You could also make a hair clip holder with this easy tutorial.




















I am giving these little beauties away! Leave a comment to let me know you are in! Trey and Lucy will pick a winner this Saturday. Good luck!




















Lastly, I couldn't help but show you this little Easter clips I made for my Lucy.
They match her Sunday Easter dress perfectly.

I love, love, LOVE your blog! I came across it about a month ago while looking for instructions on how to make a pillow case dress. I am doing a cupcake theme for my daugther's upcoming 1 year Birthday and your clippie matches perfectly (except for the blue ribbon). These are so sweet! YAY! Btw, I just made some of the glass tile pendants. LOVE them! I would love to win your clippies. My daughter has a head full of hair and I love putting them in her hair and dressing her all girlie. =)
Thanks, Celena
