I don’t wear a lot of hair accessories, but these are something I would definitely wear!

And they are super easy to make and personalize too!

Bobby Pins

Buttons

Glue
(You can use hot glue, but I recommend E-6000 for a stronger hold.)

First, get your bobby pin and button ready.

Put glue on the base of the bobby pin.

Attach the button.

And you’re done!
So easy! :)

With the E-6000, you may want to let it sit over night for the strongest hold.

I used Black/White and Retro Haberdashery Buttons and buttons from Flirtation Button Jar.

I LOVE these!!!
I can’t wait to wear them and give them away as gifts.

    Hi Nyle! If you click the link on the bobby pins, it will take you right to the page to purchase them and see prices. They are $2 for 5 and $7.20 for 20. Thanks! :)

    If you have a Hobby Lobby near you, they sell them with the Jewelry Findings. E6000 you can find at WalMart in the craft section or the hardware section with their super glues.

    Can you use buttons with the shank (loop) on the back? Do you just put the shank to the side of the flat circle on the bobby pin?
    Thanks

    Oh I love these, and they are super easy to make! Looks like the antique market might be lacking a few buttons and bobbles after my next visit!

    Becky – I think you could definitely put anything on these bobby pins. The base is perfect for anything you’d like. Just be sure to use a stronger glue like the E-6000. I haven’t tried any yet, but it’s on my list. :)

    Rica do you just use the flat back rhinestones or like rhinestone objects (soccer ball, ballet slippers, etc)?

    Shirley What else can you put on the bobby pins? Have you ever many any flowers out of fabric that you could put on there?

    Very cute! I made those before and used rhinestone.
