Procrastination at it's best!

During the first weekend in August, I was a vendor at a three-day show in Comox, BC called Nautical Days. I thought I went prepared. It turns out that I didn't go as prepared as I would have liked. I nearly sold out of my snap clips!

Since then, I have done the market a few times in Campbell River, BC and have not made any Hair Flair Snap Clips since preparation for Nautical Days.

I keep telling myself that today is the day that I will get to making my snap clips. I have the ribbon cut, but the ends still need to be treated to prevent fraying. I have cut about 175 pieces of each popular colour of ribbon and about 100 of the not-so-popular. It's a time-consuming process and I've treated three colours so far. If I just treat three colours a day, I'll be done in no time! I just have to keep telling myself that.

What project are you putting off?

Hair Flair - Alligator Clips

Good day!

As mentioned previously, I started Hair Flair with creating Alligator Clips. What is so unique about these nickel plated hair clips is each one has a magnet inserted for even better staying power. Each clip is also lined with the highest quality of velvet ribbon that comes out of Switzerland. I also treat the ends of the ribbon to prevent any fraying. I top each one with an appliqué (or in the case of the picture shown, two appliqués).

I sell at a local market: Pier Street Market: http://www.pierstreet.com/market/ I have a following of Mom's that buy 'just one' each Sunday. I truly feel that their repeat business is a true testament to the quality of my creations.

I don't know what I would be doing if I wasn't making Hair Flair - probably going stir crazy! LOL!

I couldn't believe it the first time I saw my Hair Flair 'out and about'. I just about died! But, in a good way! It was like a dream come true , actually. Her Mom, Lisa, allowed me to take photos. I took three and one of them turned out AWESOME! So good, that I use it for my promotional material. The baby girl's name is Pheonix. She has a lot of Hair Flair now! That was last year and she still wears Hair Flair religiously!
