I used to keep Ashlyn and Summer’s barrettes in a plastic container. But in order to find a matching hairclip, I had to empty the entire container out on the counter. It was kind of a hassle. Then I saw a cute ribbon thingy hanging in Lauren’s bedroom that kept all her barrettes/clips in order, and was totally thinking, “I can make that.”
And I did!
In fact, I made a bunch. Does anyone want one?….anyone?…anyone?…. Amy, Carolyn, Cyn, Dina, Evangeline, Gracie, Jenni, Julie, Nikki, Virginia???
Heard that they retail at the hair accessories kiosk for $12! 
But I’ll give it to you for FREE. hehehe 
Let me know.

You know you have to share how you did that right? We have a tiny weaved basket a la IKEA and it is so not cutting it.

hi! sure, i’d love one! thx for thinking of us! but Maiya still doesn’t have enuf hair to clip! we have 2 clips that i bought for her when she was born, but we haven’t used them yet! i’m envious whenever i see those babies with all those bangs, and hear about hair cuts and such. but, my girl had 17 teeth at 12 months, so i figure the hair can wait.

I have the hardest time finding matching barrettes in the morning when I’m late for work.

[...] Remember when I made those hair clip keepers a while back? Well, lately I’ve been trying my hand at making hair clips….mainly because I can’t stand paying more than $3 per hair clip at stores. Anyhow, my hobby kinda spawned a life of it’s own and now I’ve made enough hair clips to open up a teeny-tiny shop. To date, I’ve sold over a hundred dollars worth of clips/headbands/clip keepers…but mostly to friends and relatives. [...]
