They come in different sizes from teeny tiny to small and bigger sizes for adults as well. I make these for my daughter but there are definitely days I would consider wearing them myself!

diy baby hair clips Start by cutting small strips of fabric just big enough to cover the top of your hair clips. Heat up your glue gun.

Once the glue is hot squirt a bit onto the fat end of the hair clip. Make sure there is enough to cover the entire top and spread out thinly. Press your fabric down over the top and hold for a second.

You will want to work quickly as hot glue cools and hardens quickly. Spread a little more hot glue down either ends of the rest of the hair clips. Smooth the fabric over the glue and hold in place to adhere. Once the glue is cool use some sharp scissors to trim the fabric right up close to the edges of the hair clip.

To finish add a small dot of glue to the top of the clip. Attach a cute button, some beads, or even a little flower or bow. Viola!
