I was growing a bit tired of my daughter's hair clips and stumbled across two new ideas on the web. Let me tell you, these are cute as they come! But the best part of these two new clips? They're tiny! Which makes them extra cute in my book. Give them a try - they're super easy, too! Here are photos of my versions of their fantastic ideas.
Felt Flower
My notes: For a flower this small, invest in the Cuttlebug die cut that they recommend! Free-handing something this tiny is a hot mess. The die cut set comes with four flowers and I used the largest flower (1.5-inches) for the petals and the smallest (0.75-inches) on the back to cover stitches. Adhere with a dot of hot glue. If you do not have a die cutting machine - never fear! This "flower" could be made with felt circles, too.
Pinwheel Bobby Pin
My notes: My square measured 1.5-inches. I used HeatNBond to fuse the fabrics together and a clip rather than a bobby pin. Just as above, I glued a small felt circle to the back to cover stitches.

I love the pinwheel. So cute and different. I am a fan of tiny too. What else could you use that's tiny? Miniature dishes?
Oh my goodness the pinwheel is to die for! Tiny things are my secret weakness! I've done a pretty good job lately of reigning myself in and not just grabbing whatever tiny thing I want but I do have a gaggle of little metal robots on my shelf staring disapprovingly as I say this because they know I'm fibbing...
