Oh Rapunzel...let down your ha-air!

So as a mother of 3 beautiful little girls hair is a pretty big deal at our house.  We have hundreds of elastics in probably every room in the house.  The hair clippies fill the drawers and hang from ribbons in the girls bathroom.  I even have 2 or 3 of almost every clip so that the girls can match whenever I have the motivation to do so.  My girls took their time to grow hair, it wasn't until Lexi my oldest was about 18 mos that I could get teeny tiny pigtails.  And all of my girls have had mullets lol.  Most babies seem to have more hair on the tops of their soft little heads and the bald spot in the back but not mine.  They were bald on top with long curls in the back.  The day I was able to put a clippie in their hair without a headband was a big deal to this mama.  My girls are very girly and love to have their hair done whenever possible.  The expense of hair clips and bows can get to be pretty pricey now that I have to buy for 3. 
Recently I seen some really cute Easter hairclips on another site and wanted to order some for my girls Easter baskets.  When realizing that with shipping and handling I was expecting to spend more than $30 for 3 small clips for a only a few wears I turned away.  I was sad and really wanted to do the clips so I looked at them again and decided to give them a try myself.  Lucky for me I have 24 hours all to myself every weekend of pure boredom while working my graveyard shift at the hospital.  I packed up my ribbon and glue gun and got down to work.  I had so much fun making the hairclips and wanting to try different styles it took over my nights.  I started with one little bunny clip and it has turned into a collection of animals, insects and my favorite are the Princess clips.  I now spend my shifts at work everyweekend (and sometimes during nap time at home) surrounded in piles of ribbon and strings of hot glue all over my lap as I try to find new and fun clips to make.  The girls are always excited on Monday mornings when I come home to see what I have created.  All of my hairclips are available to purchase if you email me.  I hope to have enough together soon to take them out to little boutiques near my home.  I have thought about doing etsy or something like that for a split second but think that it might take the fun out of it and so I am putting it off for now. 
So please check out my hairclips and let me know what you think and if I can make any fun ones for your little Princess. :)
