DIYers, here we go! I've been trying to tackle the unorganized areas in my house little by little. This weekend I focused on my bathroom/bedroom area. To manage my hair accessory mess, I came up with a 5 minute craft. You can use this craft to make gifts as well!
This was not a contained mess at first! I was scooping bobby pins, pony tail holders, and hair clips from all kinds of places. Put all together, I had one huge, bulging mess.
Supplies:
- Scraps from 1 12X12 thick piece of scrapbook paper
- Scissors
- Marker
- a scrapbook punch
- a corner rounder punch
- Glue/tape
Now lets start with a mini hair clip organizer.
I totally eyeballed the length of all of my clip holders, judged by how many I had.
Fold in half if you have a bunch. (There is another row behind the clear ones.)
Yeah, that was easy huh? Now let's make a barrette holder. Get a longer piece of paper. Goodness, having striped paper made this so easy!! Leave at least an inch at the top and bottom and on the sides.
Next, is a single clip holder. I made the cuts off centered so my clip would look centered on the holder. This is my favorite hair clip that I picked up at an estate sale. I used a corner rounder to dress this one up a bit.
***Tip*** You could also use a small holder like this to just hold a few clips to throw in your make-up bag when you go on vacation!
Now we have bobby pins. OK, so this is basically just a rectangular piece of paper I admit, but for some reason it is my favorite! Pretty can be simple guys.
Life Hack: Put an ankle biter clip on the edge of all of your headbands to keep them together!
Lastly, you can see the tamed mess! Flat, no longer bulging, and styled.
