Mermaid Shell Hair Clip

Supplies 

  • Shells
  • Bobby Pin or Clip
  • Glue
  • Felt optional

Instructions

  • Put glue on the shell. Turn the shell over to find where you want to affix the hair clip. Keep in mind you want it flattish so it can sit in the hair nicely. If you don’t have a good flatter surface I suggest using my felt trick. I’ll talk about below
  • Position the hair clip. Position the hair clip on the glue and hold it in place until the glue is dry. Remember that the the bumpy parts of bobby pins are meant to be pointed downward.
  • Enjoy. It really is that easy!

Notes

Use this felt tip if you need more surface area or flexibility to get the glue to stick to the hair clip.
Start by sliding a small piece of felt onto the hair clip. For a bobby pin you want to place it in-between the long parts so where your hair will go. Then on the side of the felt that is facing the top (the part of the hair clip AWAY from the hair when wearing it, the picture shows it wrong oops) you will put your glue. Next place the glue covered felt on the underside of the shell and hold it there until it dries.
