I had some free time a few weeks ago, yes I said weeks ago to take a solo trip to Hobby Lobby. It’s funny how much stuff you can find when you aren’t wrangling a toddler and trying to keep him from opening packages of plastic Easter eggs, or m & m’s, or honestly anything and everything else in sight!
While walking the aisles, I finally cam across something that I had been wanting to work with for a while now, some silver bobby pins that you could add little adornments to. I also found some super cute mini fabric rosettes and gems that would make a perfect little topper for each bobby pin.
Simple Bobby Pins
To make some of your own, you’ll need:
bobby pins with a flat, circular head at the top {found in the jewelry aisle}
small items to decorate them with {buttons, fabric, poms, flowers}
hot glue gun/glue sticks
Not much to explain here friends. Get your glue gun plugged in, put a dab of glue on each circular head and attach your desired bling. Soon I had a handful of simple little bobby pins in less than 5 minutes!
I went with black and white options this time around, but I think next time I’m at the craft store I’ll find a fun Spring color or two to use!
You really can’t go wrong with black, white, and silver options though!
