Pearl Topped Hair Grips

I was inspired by Vanessa on Cafe Craftea to make a pair of pearl topped hair grips.

Head over to her blog for the super simple how-to.

I experimented with other designs just using pearl beads and jewellery wire.

I even got a bit fancy by adding a big oval bead in the middle.

Since I wear hair grips with most of my hair styles to keep those pesky fly-aways in place this is an easy way to make every day hair styles a bit special.

Pearl Ears

Have you noticed that decorative cat ears are now a thing?

Taylor even wears some in her 22 video.

I got the inspiration to make my own from a tutorial on Cut out and Keep.

It's pretty simple really; bead some wire into ears, thread on beads, attach to a hair band by wrapping around ribbon.

It took me ages to find both beads and ribbon that matched and were the right size.

My ear turned out a little wonky but I don't mind.

It adds character.
