Life without bobby pins? No thanks. Whether it’s unwashed, messy or just plain bad… my hair is constantly saved by these precious, precious accessories. So adding some flair to your bobbies makes those bad hair days a little more fun. These bobby pins are so easy and make great gifts… especially if they’re gifts to yourself!
What You Need:
E6000 glue
Old earrings or necklace (they need to have loose jewels so it’s easy to remove them)
Gold bobby pins
Pliers
Directions:
1. Remove all gemstones from necklace or earrings.
2. Lay them all out and arrange them into designs.
3. Glue a main gem on the bobby pin first. All The other jewels will be glued to this main jewel because the base of the bobby pin is very small.
4. After the main jewel has dried, start to glue on other jewels.
5. The glue is slow drying, so you may need to prop up the bobby pin so everything can dry evenly.
