Simple + Cute + Practical…Can It Be?!

Yes it can be!! I created this fun hair clip organizer for the Clear Scraps CHA Summer booth. It's super easy to make and very practical. Plus it can hold ALOT of hair clips!

I used the Clear Scraps XL Scallops Clear Shape as the base of the holder. I inked the edges with black ink and then wrapped the shape with black ribbon to create a place for the clips to clip onto. I added a wire hanger and several bows to decorate the wire.



For the focal point on the lower right side of the holder I added feathers, bows, stick pins and baubles. I covered the back of the Dress Forms Embellishments by Clear Scraps with Anna Griffin paper and then cut it out with a craft knife, inking the edges with black ink. I added that the grouping of embellishments and added a Prima pearl flourish on top to bring if all together. Now it's ready to hang and store clips!


Supplies:

  • Dress Forms Embellishments by Clear Scraps
  • Paper – Anna Griffin
  • Bling – Prima, Pink Paislee
  • Pearl Paint – Viva
  • Ink – Clearsnap
  • Ribbon, Tulle, Flower – hydrangeahippo.etsy.com

    What a great idea! I’m definitely going to try that. I’ve got three girls! This is exactly what I need. By the way, I got my kit today that I won from Donna Downey’s blog today. That was super quick! Can’t wait to really play with it. I posted pics on my blog. Thanks again. Beautiful package!!
