Monogram Hair Clip holder with a Twist

So Ive been seeing a lot of these, cutesy hair clip holders, around lately. I think they are ADORABLE! Ive been wanting to make one for my daughter Kiah (and myself too actually!) for a while now. And tonight it hit me.. the perfect idea for her.

  Ive mentioned before that I was working on some wall decor for her room.. (Ive finally finished a project.. just havent posted yet!! oye!!) Well I started out with an idea for what I was doing then changed my mind and did something completely different. Im gonna need to stop being lazy and actually post my finished projects! Im sorry that my motto lately is: I'd Rather be crafting!!!

Anyways... onto the reason I seemingly changed the subject to the wall decor project for Kiah's room; See I had painted a wooden letter K with Zebra Print for that project.. then decided not to use it for that project but would save it for something else.

And now on to this post.. I decided to use that K for a hair clip holder! But for the twist I also made it useful for hanging up headbands too! Since Kiah loves wearing headbands as well.

Project Supplies:
Wood letter
Glue Gun/Glue Stick
Ribbon

Cut as much ribbon as you think you will need/use.. glue strand(s) to the back.

Then I added a little more glue and looped some ribbon back..Added a little more glue on that so the top layer coming down would stay in place.

and here is the loop up close

I added a few more loops down the ribbon and there you have it... a spot for head bands on your hair clip holder! :) A simple way to make some thing good even better.

  1. That headband idea is genius! Way to make hairbow holders new and exciting again. I'd love to do something like that. Maybe I'll have to revamp my daughters to hold headbands too.

    Love the lace flower too! Did you use the tutorial at Aly & Ash? If so, you should totally send her a picture of it. She loves posting reader creations on her Face-book page.

  5. I just got around to posting my initial bowholder on Monday and it also has loops for headbands. I went a small step further and added velcro to the bottom and a third of the way up so you can add hair ties too. ;) Great minds must think alike I'd say!

    Thanks for linking up with Sugar & Spice.
