Bobby Pins - Handcrafted Paper Bead - Anthropologie Catalog

Handcrafted Paper Bead Bobby Pins

I made these paper bead bobby pins from an upcycled Anthropologie catalog page. The hair pins are eco-friendly. You could use junk mail, old magazines, catalogs, etc. to find colorful images for bead making.

The paper bead is 2" long. It is varnished to help resist moisture. You apply the bobby pin to your hair the same way you would an unadorned hair pin. You can wear one, two at a time or all of them at once. It's up to you. It's a creative way to add some color and bling to your hairstyle.  Have fun!!!

The pictured paper bead bobby pins can be purchased in my Etsy Store.
