DIY LEGO Flower Hair Clips

It is not a secret that we love LEGOs in this house. 
I don't think a day goes by that my kids don't play with LEGOs at some point.
The other day my daughter asked if she could have a LEGO hair clip, and of course I said, "Yes!"
I thought since flowers are blooming everywhere around here that a flower hair clip would be prefect.


Supplies

2 metal hair clips (I use these
3/8" grosgrain ribbon
2 yellow flower LEGOs
2 white dot LEGOs
6 bright green 2 dot LEGOs
hot glue gun
hot glue sticks
heat sealer or scissors
2 non-slip grips (optional, I get mine from DoodlebugAccessories on Etsy.com)




1. Cut 2 pieces of your ribbon to 4.5" in length. You may have to adjust the length if you use a different size clip. 

My favorite way to cut ribbon is to lay the glass from a picture frame on top of my cutting mat so I can see the measurements and use a heat sealer to cut the ribbon. If the ribbon is wide I use another piece of glass to have a straight line to cut against.


2. Using hot glue, line your clips with the cut pieces of ribbon.


3. If desired attach the non-slip grips now, or if you forget (like me) you can attach them at the end.



4. Using hot glue, attach 2 bright green 2 dot LEGOs to each clip.


5. Using hot glue, attach 1 yellow flower to each clip.


6. Using hot glue, attach 1 white dot to each flower, and 1 bright green 2 dot LEGOs to each clip.


7. Let your little cutie sport her stylin' new hair clips.
