Hair flowers for my miss!

I decided I would try my hand at making Mailey some hair flowers! I went to the Dollar Store and picked up all of these things (minus the scissors & glue gun) for $6.00. That's less than you can buy one for online!

First you turn the flower over and take out the plastic part. It just pops off after a few twists

Then separated all three pieces and put glue around the center of the first one, put the middle one on top, glue on the center and then placed the little piece on top. Having the hole in the center was nice for lining them up.

I found a couple pearls in my scrapbook stuff and glued them on the center. I then put a generous dollop of glue on the black clip and centered the flower on it (hold for a few seconds and your done).

As you can see this one isn't exactly center... I was trying to take a drink of Diet Pepsi while holding the glue to dry... You can't really tell once it's in Mailey's hair.

The headband ones I just glued them right on the headband. If these get destroyed by my miss, I'm not going to worry because they didn't cost me a lot and I can just make some more with my leftover supplies! I follow a long list of craft blogs and always think the ideas are so cute! When I go to try them... well they never quiet turn out right. I'm more the glue gun, fast and simple crafter! :-)
