Before I was married I had the lovely privilege to live with two wonderful friends. One climbed rocks and was studding to help children with Autism; the other was a seamstress studding to be a school teacher. The seamstress always had little buttons in her hair! They were so cute and I asked her how she did it, and here's how!
What you will need:
Hot Glue Gun
Good quality Bobbi pins
( Target has some by Conair and they are pretty good. You can also go to Sally Beauty and pick up some professional ones.)
Buttons
or fabric
Or other small items you can glue to a pin
Choose a button! This one is greenish grey! Place a dollop of hot glue in the center.
Put the bobbi pin with the shorter side down facing table.
(this will insure that the button is on the proper side of the pin. If you happen to stick it on the other side it will be a little trickier when you try and put it in your hair!)
(I was supposed to throw that glue chunk out but i forgot! Now it looks like its trying to make some political statement!)
Pick some other pretty buttons and keep going until you have a lovely assortment of buttons!
These make great little gifts and its a fun craft idea when you have girls night!
You don't have to use buttons either. You can use lace, and other fabric, make bows and stick them on pins or plain head bands. Easy as a wink!
