Hairpieces For Sale

All of the Hairpieces I Made
Well, as promised, I wanted to share the hairpieces that I was making.  A friend of mine at church asked if I could make her a bunch so that she could sell them at her work and at her jewelry shows this month.  It seemed easy in theory, but then I didn't know exactly what people wanted.  There are so many ways that you can make these rosettes, that it was hard to decide.

This is a large rosette that I attached to a large hair band.  I love wearing these over my ponytails.  I used a piece of felt over the pony to keep it in place with hot glue.

This is one of those larger barrettes with 3 rosettes on it.  I showed a couple of friends at church before passing this on to the lady who wanted them, and it sold immediately.

I love this one.  I attached it to a bobby pin.  I chose to use the regular bobby pins because the craft ones don't work as well and well as the alligator clips seem to slip out of my hair.

I think this one turned out really cute.  I made the little bow to go on it.

I used some leftover chiffon from an Easter dress I made my daughter one year.  (I will never sew that stuff again - it really needed a serger for the seams.)  I added some green ribbon for the leaves and an antique button on the center.  This one sold right away!

This is a rosette that gathered to make with some lace.

A couple more bobby pins.  The left is a floral print with sequins in the center.  And the right one is a zipper off a sweatshirt that I used for the first black rosette!  i thought it turned out pretty cute!

I've been selling these quicker than I can make them.  I intend on getting some up on my Etsy shop too, so stay tuned!  let me know what you think!
