"I Did It!" is a favorite catch-phrase of Amalie's and it was how I felt after I made these clippies. Amalies' hair is at that in-between stage where it looks shaggy, but we've got to give it time to grow. I haven't known what to do with her hair since I am completely inept at girls' hair- I can't even braid. It's that bad. So, I was at a boutique with my friends when I saw some clippies like that pictured above and I almost bought them, but then decided to look around a little bit more (at cheaper places). The next day I ran into a gal who makes them for her daughter and she was telling me how easy it was. So, despite my reservations since I am not a crafty person, I tried it and Voila! It was pretty easy. And even kind of fun!
So, this is how I did it:
-Bought huge pack of Alligator clips from Sally Beauty Supply (I still have a bunch if anyone wants some-they come in packs of 100!)
-Got scrapbooking ribbon and accessories from Robert's Crafts
-Glue gun and glue sticks
Then just glue the ribbon, and accessories and that's it.

Cute clips. I hear you with the not knowing how to do girls hair. Yikes and I have two! I'm not sure where I'll learn...Megan doesn't even like me to do a ponytail these days.
You're crafty!
Super impressed, they are darling!
