DIY Flower Clips {Picture Tutorial}
I have 2 girls and they both love to wear bows in their hair. I LOVE to put fun accessories in their hair and am always looking for something fun, new and inexpensive to make! I am not a good bow maker (so I usually buy those), but I figured out how to make flower hair clips a few years ago. It is a quick, inexpensive gift to make for a baby shower; or if you are missing the perfect accessory for your little girl’s outfit. Here is what you need to make these cute flower clips.
Silk Flowers-I always buy them when they are on sale. I got mine from Michael’s when they were buy one get one free so they were $1 each {see if there are any you like on Amazon}
Hair Clips–They are cheapest at Sally’s I got a box of 100 for about $4 {it was a few years ago that I got the box so I can’t remember exactly how much they were, there are also some on Amazon}
Flat rhinestones-Michael’s {30 for $3 – or find some on Rhinsstones on Amazon)
Brads {one for each flower} {find some Brads on Amazon}
Glue gun {find a glue gun on Amazon}
Wire cutters {find wire cutters on Amazon}
First you pull of the stem then place the wire cutters between the green part and the flower and cut the stem. Be careful not to cut the flower!
Pull off the yellow part on the front of the flower
Place a brad in the front of the flower through the hole
Fasten the brad down in the back
Put some hot glue on the brad in the center of the flower
Place the flat rhinestone in the middle of the flower. Hold it firmly until the glue cools.
Put hot glue on the back of the flower
place the hair clip on the glue
I used a glue stick so I wouldn’t burn my fingers to get the flower firmly pressed on the glue. Let it dry and you are ready to wear it
Here are the 4 flower clips I made in just about 10 minutes for under $5 for all of them. I think one flower clip that you buy premade costs $5!

My 4 year old was so excited for her new flower clips. She had to put on in right away!

Oh my goodness! How sweet is your daughter!!
and thanks for posting this! I’ve been wanting to learn how to make these forever!
thanks Becky! She has her moments 🙂
THE FLOWERS WERE 1/2 OFF AT HOBBY LOBY LAST TIME I WAS THERE AND I MADE THESE FOR MY DAUGHTERS DANCE CLASS RECITAL I WAS ABLE TO MAKE THEM FOR UNDER $1/ CLIP CHEAP AND REALLY CUTE!!!
Another way to make them instead of using a brad is just to glue each layer of the flower to the last. Then you don’t have to buy the brads and they can be even cheaper:) That’s how I make mine.
Also, if you have a Sally Beauty Supply store in your area you can buy the clips there for cheaper than on Amazon. They’re $5.99 for 100, plus you can use coupons and they have sales too.
Another great place to buy the flowers at a good price is at garage sales sales and thrift shops.
These flowers are on sale this week (5/20-26/2012) at Michaels for $.99 each!
