DIY Beaded Hairpins Guest Post by Satomi

Beaded Hairpins

Handmade hairpins

You can decorate your own hairpins in three easy steps!

1. Gather materials: hairpins, beads or buttons, and clear thread (I used a 4 lb fishing line).

2. Figure out the arrangement of each bead or button.

3. Tie on one bead at a time by looping around at least twice and double or triple knotting the string. Loop it through the bead once more before cutting off the excess string.

Instead of using single beads, I also wove seed beads and crystal beads together before attaching them onto the hairpins!
