I bought some vintage buttons on etsy (sorry, but I can’t remember what shop) to use for centers of fancy wool felt flowers.
Seems like I bought a few dozen of them, so I had spares. I have used flat back or non shank buttons to make hair pins for my nieces.
So I cut the shank off these buttons and used E6000 to glue the buttons to the hairpins! Very minimal cost and they are so cute!
I might be linking to some of these parties!

I make a lot of things, but last week I forked out big stupid bucks at anthro for very similar hair pins! Yours are gorgeous, and I'm going a hunting for fancy buttons to make my own! Thanks!
Thanks for stopping by and linking up an awesome project. Stop by again soon!
Have a great week!

The rhinestone hair pins are so pretty. How clever of you to think of making such pretty hairpins that way. I'm wondering why I don't have any E-6000, duh, keep seeing it mentioned as being used by so many bloggers. Next time I'm in a craft store going to make sure I get some. Happy Week
