How to make DIY barrettes for spring?

Spring is back, and so are barrettes!

More than ever, hair clips are a trendy accessory.

Very chic and feminine, barrettes play a dual role: holding back a rebellious lock of hair and adding a touch of whimsy to your look.

As useful as they are pretty, barrettes are really cool!

Spring is inspiring us right now! And this accessory is totally in line with that theme!

Decorate this barrette with fabric flowers - a great idea, don't you think?

You can create a pretty hairstyle that will add that little something extra to your outfit.

Whatever the color, look or length of your hair, this accessory will be perfect for you!

But what's that little sparkle on the barrette? They're PureCrystal pearly beads !

They add softness and elegance! There's a wide choice of colors and sizes!

The organza fabric is slightly transparent and a little shiny.

The gold barrette adds a festive, chic touch to any occasion.

Also available in silver.

This tutorial is easy to make, just take a look:

Step 1: Cut about 15 circles in the organza fabric - it doesn't matter if they're not perfect.

Step 2: Using a lighter or candle, lightly melt the outline of the circles.

Step 3: Pass the thread through the needle and tie two knots at the end, then thread all the circles starting from the back of the flower.

Step 4: Thread a pearly bead and sew it onto the fabric, then do the same with the other beads.

Step 5: Glue the flower to the barrette and leave to dry while you start to create another flower.

Isn't that a nice touch?
