Book Page Flower Clip



I whipped this up in about 5 minutes. It's a cute little accessory that could be done many ways. But, here's how I did it...

I grabbed a book heading to the thrift store and cut little odd shapes out. Don't worry I used the excerpt tucked in the back. If they really want to read the excerpt they can go check the book!


I stacked the shapes on top of each other gluing in between, then added a little mirror to the top.


Yes, I did use super glue. Not a great idea, but I made it work. I found a 'g' leftover from a Cricut project and gave the mirror a frame with it. Next, I wrapped brown ribbon around a simple bobby pin- gluing to secure.

Here's the finished project! Super easy, fast, and so many possibilities.

Whew! Had to wipe the screen off! It looked like I had dandruff. If it appears that way on your screen, please wipe off your screen too. If it's still there, e-mail me...

  2. This is super cute, I love book related projects. I do have a question though, if there's ribbon wrapped around the bobby pin how do you silde it in your hair? I feel like this is a dumb question but I can't figure it out. Thanks for the help
