The Lonely Button Hair Pin

I have an extremely quick project to share with you today.  It includes only three things: hair pins, spare/lonely buttons, and a hot glue gun.

I have had some lovely little buttons in my button jar.  I loved them, but didn't know what to do with them. Rather than just pulling them out of my button jar to admire, I decided that I should give them the attention that they deserved, and put them on display.

All of the buttons that I used were shank buttons.  I simply slipped them onto the hair pin, and glued around them.  So simple!

 I can now proudly display my buttons!  Wahoo!

 I have these cute juvenile buttons that I was tempted to turn into hairpins, but I think that I'll wait until I have a little girl to use them on.

Has anyone ever spray painted bobby pins?  I'm thinking that some bright yellow or aqua hair pins would be fun.

Hello! I'm Rachel! You can normally find me at my blog Holy Craft.

I'm a stay at home mom to three beautiful kiddos and I'm finding that as they get older, I'm getting more time to be crafty. I've been crafting, sewing and cooking for as long as I can remember and love the creative outlet that it gives me. I'm also super cheap so I like to find most of my supplies at garage sales.

Today I am going to share with you my tutorial on how to make wire wrapped rings using a vintage button.
