Hi everyone! I came up with a really neat craft to make for the Fall Fair. Check out these beautiful barrettes!

What you need:
Bobby pins, beads with large holes, rectangle of cardstock

 

What you do:

  1. Choose what kind of bead you’d like to put on your barrettes. You can make matching ones or complimentary ones (for example, you could make a bee and a flower).
  2. Slide your beads all the way to the end of your bobby pin.  The pin should still close properly (the bead shouldn’t make it stay open – if it does, you need thinner beads). 
  3. When your barrettes are done, put them onto the cardstock. This allows for them to be displayed nicely!

    Those look so pretty!! I have really long hair and it has lots of knots so it will be kinda hard for it to stay.
