Easy Fabric Hair Pins - by Jodie Zebra

Hi guys!
So we are heading into, what some may call the "silly season" aka - Christmas time.
Personally I love it, its the best time of the year, even with all the craziness, the busy times, and most of all, the gift giving.

I thought I would share with you a super quick and easy little idea, that you could use, to make up a sweet little handmade gift, this Christmas.
One of my favourite things to make are fabric buttons, they are easy, and the texture at the end is awesome!
I totally love the texture of the Buzz and Bloom cord, so I had to try it out and make some fabric buttons with it!

First you will need the tools to make fabric buttons, These can be found at most craft stores.

Along with the fabric of your choice, for a beautiful textured button I used some Avocado and Magenta Cord: Patchwork fineliner

According to your package instructions that come with the tool, cut your fabric to the desired size, and using the little tool, create your new fabric button.
Then its as simple as sliding your bobby pin onto the button shank loop, and your ready to wear your new creation.
Or perhaps give it as a cute Christmas gift this year, you could make a sweet little card to attach them to, for cute presentation.

Here is how they turned out, see what I mean about that awesome texture?!

I just adore these two shades, especially the magenta.

Ive made mine up, as cute hair accessories for my Blythe dolls.
They would also look adorable on little girls, and adults too of course.

Thanks for looking, and I hope you get inspired to try it!
xx Jodie.
