Making Hair Clips

[AdrienneBrown]

I am wondering if anyone would share the best way to wrap ribbon on the alligator hair clips. I can''t figure out what kind of adhesive is being used. I''ve seen these cute hair clips around, and I figure they are simple to make. After many attempts of getting the fabric to look smooth and tight on the clip, I have no idea what glue is being used. Thanks

Have you tried dabs of hot glue at the end??? I've seen this done before, but I don't know if it is the norm. But i would think it would work!

I don't think hot glue would work... but I don't really know of another alternative. When I used to work for a jewelry store, we used Zap-a-gap. It will bond ANYTHING, but I don't know if it would show through fabric. Perhaps it would work if you used something thicker like denim or felt.
