Inspired by the gorgeous yet pricey hair bobbies seen in lovely shops, but much easier on the budget.

You Will Need (6 things)

  • Hot Glue Gun
  • Felt
  • Nail Polish
  • sparkly Costume Jewelery old mismatched earrings work great, sparkly is best
  • Bobby Pins
  • Pliers

Steps (3 steps, 30 minutes)

  1. 1

    Paint the top of the bobby pins and let them dry. While the nail polish dries, go ahead and snap off the stems from the back of the earrings. A few bends with pliers snapped those stems right off of my earrings.

  2. 2

    Cut out tiny squares of felt and glue them to the back of the jewel. Make sure it’s small enough so you don’t see bits of felt sticking out from the front. Then cut an even smaller piece of felt and “thread” it through the top of the bobby pin.

  3. 3

    Hot glue the smaller piece while it’s still in the bobby pin to the back of the felt on the jewel. Let it dry and voila! Bling for your hair!
