I have been looking for rose hair clips for my wedding. Instead of the traditional veil I want to place one or two roses in my hair that match my gown. But I about fell over when I saw that most places wanted to charge $30-$40 for one clip! So…I’ve decided to make my own because it is so simple and so much cheaper! You can buy a quality silk rose for about $3 and a hair clip for about $1. So that is only $4 instead of $40. That’s a pretty good savings if you ask me! Plus this way you can attach the rose to whatever clip will work best with your hair.
Materials
1 silk flower approx. 3″ in diameter
1 metal hair clip
Tools
Heavy-duty wire cutters
Hot glue gun and glue
Directions:
Clip off the flower at the base of the head, and set the stem aside. You want the back of the flower flat, so trim off any excess material, keeping the glue gun handy – you can glue back any petals that may have come loose.
Glue the flower to the top of the open hair clip. Try to keep the flower centered, so the clip is hidden. Use the leaves from the stem to decorate the back of the flower. Glue your leaves over the back of the flower and the inside of the clip. Have patience – let the glue set before you try the clip on. Source
I viewed many breathtaking bobby pins during the previous party season.
