Buttons and Beads

I don't know about all of you, but I have always been crazy about hair products and accessories. Ever since I was a young girl I loved barrettes, ribbons, bows, clips, and headbands. The cuter the better for me. But as time went on and I became a mommy, my hair has become less complicated and a bit shorter! (I still love all the accessories, but I just do not have time to use em all!)

So, on the subject of hair and accessories...How many of us have needed a bobby pin here or there and do not want to use the plain old ordinary ones we see in stores? (I mean those are really boring!)
I came across the CUTEST bobby pins I have ever seen the other day while surfing etsy stores. Of course I just HAD to find out about em so Julie from DawnWillBreak sent me a sample and WOW, they are adorable!
Check these out....

She uses all kinds of buttons on her bobby pins to make them so colorful and bright...I can really see young girls loving these as well! (Wearing 3 or 4 of em in a row would be so cute!)
Not only that but she also does beaded bobby pins too...

How easy would it be to slip one of these babies in if you need a quick fix or just a simple decoration? And if you have children that dance, you know bobby pins are going to be your best friend...So, why not put a few of these in to jazz up the look?
Besides the cutest bobby pins ever, Julie @ DawnWillBreak has several other items she sells as well. Two of my FAVS are her earrings and bracelets.


The great thing about buying her adorable products is that NO ONE else will have the same item that you do. (She will make you an original item based on your request! How cool is that?)
The last product that is just one of the cutest ideas ever is a "button ring".
I think just about anyone would love a ring like this and the prices are fantastic!!!
Please go and check out ALL of her products at her site above and her blog Here. You will be so glad you did!

AND.....
Julie was nice enough to give one reader a set of her adorable bobby button pins. Just leave me some comment love and on July 1st I'll let the generator pick a winner! It's as easy as that....Yay!



And as always...Thanks for visiting,
Danielle

I love hair things too! I'm trying to pick the more sophisticated looking ones now that I'm older - but I naturally generate towards the cuter ones! These are all cute!

These are so adorable. I am always looking for something cute to control my insanely curly bangs in this heat and humidity!! I blow them straight and the second I walk outside they curl right up.
