Hair pretties made easy with Really Reasonable Ribbon & Helmar!

RRR_clips
I was recently asked to guest design for Really Reasonable Ribbon using some goregous ribbon and I stepped out of my comfort zone to create some hair clips for my girls. I wanted to share how I incredibly easy they are to make using Helmar 450 Quick Dry

First, pick some ribbon the same widge of your clip.

Then I start by placing a dollop of glue at the top where you squeeze the clip open.

Pinch some of the ribbon over and around for a few seconds. Helmar 450 Quick Dry lives up to its name and dries pretty fast.

Then I run some more Helmar 450 Quick Dry along the prongs and wrap the ribbon around the top of the clip.

Now, you can keep it like that - it looks pretty as is, or you can embellish a little like I did. I just added a little dollop of glue at the top.

And placed a shabby fabric flower with a brad in the middle.
