DARLING hair accessories

I watch Studio 5 EVERYDAY!! it's one of my favorite shows. and what a FUN SURPRISE this morning to see our neighborhood's own Corinne Jensen with the most DARLING craft. (and of course the most ADORABLE little models). Great job Corinne!

Here's the excerpt from the Studio 5 website and the link:

Studio 5 Contributor, Corinne Jensen shows how to make these cute one-of-a-kind accessories.


Materials:

- Felt, two colors
- Embroidery floss
- Embroidery needle
- Button, for embellishment
- Hair clip
- Scissors
- Template design

Instructions:

Trace two of the main template designs onto the felt.

1. Trace one of the center template designs onto a coordinating color of felt.

2. Cut out all three pieces.(set one of the main designs aside, you will not need it until the end)

3. With a needle and embroidery floss stitch the center design onto ONE of the main designs.

4. Then sew the button on in the center of that. (You can use the same floss.)

5. Now get the second main design piece and the hair clip. Pop the clip through to the back of the design and snap shut.

6. Line the two main designs up and stitch them together. Knot or tie off the floss when you have stitched around the entire design and you are done!

Hey I know I am a nerd on TV and I almost died when Susan told me I was on the blog. Anyhoo check out some of the other cute clipys on our site www.saffron-girls.com We have some creative ladies in our neighborhood and I am just lucky to know them. Sue and Courtney are some fellow clipy ladies and Amy D was the original teacher.

It was so fun to see you and all the cute "models". And you were NOT a nerd! You did such a good job. You weren't (or didn't look) nervous at all!! Great job! I've added your site to our "support the girls from the hood" section. Glad to have the information bc I've had people wonder how they could get them!
