Love this studded barrette that is so unbelievably simple to make that you will want to make one in every color you love!

Satin Flower Comb

I'm loving these fabric flowers 

. . . so here is another one!

This one features many layers, giving it

that fluffy look.  It is also large enough

to feature a big button or brooch in

the center and of course beads as

 shown in the photo.  

Love it!

Gathered Fabric Flower

This gathered fabric flower is one of my favorites.

Love the embellished center!

I'm thinking of the boxes of vintage jewelry I have and

the mismatched earrings that I could use as an embellishment.

One of the things I love about this tutorial is that you don't

need a sewing machine to make this flower, it can be hand

stitched.  I still can't get to my sewing machine :)

This flower is awesome as a hair barrette, but the possibilities

are endless!  How about using it on pillows, purses, clothing

and on and on and on!

Lots of headband tutorials

Every time I need a hair accessory to match a particular outfit, it seems like I can search and search the stores and not find a thing . . . that is what I love about making my own accessories, as well as the satisfaction of creation.

Laurie at the Tip Junkie (one of my all time favorite blogs) has compiled a page of all types of headbands, complete with tutorials!

Thanks to Laurie for so much inspiration!

Stylish pony tails

The pony tail is timeless!  

Fast, easy and so very stylish when adorned with hair accessories,
it is one of those hair styles that never goes away.

Hair accessories are one of those items that I will be featuring
when I reopen my online store, LaBelladiva.  Can't wait to dust

 off my sewing machine and craft area to get started creating.
