In this tutorial, I’ll demonstrate how to create a simple DIY hair accessory that you’re sure to adore. You’ll only need four basic tools, so gather them together and follow my step-by-step instructions!

Tools and materials: 

  • Cotton fabric
  • Spring barette clip
  • Glue gun
  • Scissors
Cotton fabric

1. Lay cotton fabric down

Start by taking a yard of cotton fabric and laying it down flat. I’ve gone for one in a gorgeous red and white gingham design.

2. Glue fabric

Cut the fabric into a small rectangle and glue one of the long sides like so.

Here is the finished fabric clip, and I adore the way it looks. I love how the fabric is all ruched and bunched up.


It creates a really feminine appearance, and I know that this is going to be such a go-to hair accessory for me.
