Easy To Make Hair Clips Step-by-Step Tutorial hair

Materials Required

Green rectangular sheet
Scissors
Blue marker
Glue stick
Toothpick
Single pearl bead
Object picker

Step 1: Creating the Clip Shape

Take the green rectangular sheet and fold it in half lengthwise. You should now have a long strip. On one end of the strip, draw a clip shape using a pencil. The clip shape resembles the letter “M” with shorter arms. Make sure to leave some space between the arms for cutting. Refer to the first image as a guide. Once the shape is drawn, carefully cut along the outline using a pair of scissors. Remember to be cautious while handling sharp objects and seek adult supervision if needed.

Step 2: Adding Dots to the Clip

Using the blue marker, create a pattern of dots on the cut green clip. These dots should cover the entire front side of the clip. You can make the dots randomly or create a specific design according to your preference. Let your creativity shine as you add these colorful dots! Observe the second image as a reference.

Step 3: Applying Glue

Now, take the glue stick and apply a thin layer of glue on both ends of the “M” shaped clip. To make this process easier, use a toothpick to spread the glue evenly. Applying glue on both ends will ensure that the clip remains secure and long-lasting. Exercise caution while handling the glue and be sure not to use excessive amounts.

Step 4: Attaching the Ends

With the glue applied, carefully attach the last two ends of the “M” shaped clip to the middle clip arm. The ends should fit snugly and form a stable structure. This step helps create the functional part of the hair clip, making it easy to use and secure in your hair. Take a look at the fourth image to visualize the attachment.

Step 5: Adding the Pearl Bead

Using an object picker, carefully pick up a single pearl bead. This small, elegant bead will serve as a decorative element for your hair clip. Attach the bead to the lower end of the clip, opposite to the middle clip arm. Ensure it is firmly secured in place. The bead adds a touch of sophistication and uniqueness to your creation. Refer to the fifth image for clarity.
