I
chopped my hair off for the summer time. I
love having it short, except for the fact that you can't do the whole
pony tail thing when you are in a hurry. I've decided that
bobby pins are the short haired girls pony tail. I use them
constantly. I thought I would make some
cute hair pins for me and
as a gift for my SIL birthday. If you want something to do that's
super easy and
relatively inexpensive-this is project is for you. Here are the
materials you'll need.

I got all my supplies at
Walmart. Back in the fabric department they have really
large buttons with cute designs. They are $2 for a set of 3. I found some
hair pins that have a flat surface on the top $2.50 for a set of 6.

You'll need to use
epoxy to glue those suckers on. Anything else is just going to pop off. Use a
toothpick to wipe the glue onto the pin.

You don't want to get too much and glue the pin together. While the glue dried I stuck the clip
back on the edge of the paper so that if some of the glue seeped out I could just rip the paper backing off.

You'll have to look at your epoxy bottle to see how long you'll need to let them dry. Mine took
24 hrs, but the seem to be holding tight so far!

Tomorrow is
Creative Cats so drop by again tomorrow and bring something for
show and tell! I can't wait to see your projects!!
