Do you hate plain hairclips but still need a way to keep hair in place? Try adding a little bling.
This project is quick and easy. You will need:
Plain (metal) clips (12 for $1.00)
E6000 Industrial Glue (use in well ventilated place) ($4.99)
Rhinestones (I used Darice brand in 7mm size) ($3.99 for 150 rhinestones)
Gemstone holder or tweezers (This is optional but really helps keep your beads clean and free of glue) ($2.99)
I purchased most of the supplies at either Joanne’s or Michael’s.
Step 1: Wipe off top of metal clip to make sure it is free of dust or oil
Step 2: Squeeze a strip of glue along top of clip
Step 3: Using gemstone holder place rhinestones on clip in a row. You have a couple minutes to move them. Try to keep the top as free of glue as possible. You can slide them around to make sure they fit.
Step 4: Allow to dry 24 hours. The rhinestones will stay and place. They sparkle in the sunlight and also under lights. Great way to dress up any outfit.
