Welcome to bitty bum boutique tv today we're going to be making a really cute st patrick's day, hair clip this really cute clover, shamrock whatever you want to call it hair clip and it's really easy super cute, and i think your little girl is going to love It so, let's get started with what you're going to need you're going to need three shades of green ribbon. Some white ribbon something to put in the middle like a button or a rhinestone aligned, green alligator clip and your glue gun and we'll get started with the first step. You'Re going to need four different color ribbons for this one you're gon na have. I have three shades of green and then white and you're gon na cut those a half inch different. So my first one is three and a half inches and that's the longest piece. Then you have um three inches two and a half and then the shortest white one is two inches long. So what you're going to start with your shortest piece and you're, going to bring it together at the end and put a little dab of glue right there at the end and then just squeeze it together. Just like that then you're going to take your next one meet it together. The end bring it around and you're going to glue that one also just kind of separate them with your glue gun, get that glue in there squeeze together next piece and you're going to do this um six times so you're making six of these little. I guess we'll call them the clovers six of these staggering ribbon pieces now, our last one just whoops, just like that, put some glue in there. Okay, so we have the four pieces you can see and then i like to just go back with the lighter and just heat seal them all at once. There kind of melt them all together with the glue squeeze them together, make sure they're all stuck okay. So we're gon na do, like i said, you're gon na make six of these and then we're gon na put them two together to make like a heart shape. So i'm gon na finish up those. Now we have all of the um pieces glued together. So we have six of them here and i've already glued two together. So we have one two, three, four, five six. So what we're going to do is put them in groups of two and make this like heart shape, so we're just going to glue two of them together at the ends, and these are going to become our clover. Leafs shamrock leaves whatever we want to call just going to put a good amount of glue there and squeeze those two together so that it makes this like heart shape. So then we'll have three groups of two, so just like that perfect. Okay. So now that we have our three hearts we're going to get our lined alligator clip, which i already have ready, and so i lined it in one of the greens from the leaves and we are going to put the clip down that way and then glue our Leaves on so what we're gon na do here is um we're gon na kind of that one will go on right there and then this one across from it, and then this one's going to get glued right at the tip. So when it's done, it's going to look like that super cute, so i'm going to start with the top one. So i'm going to put a good amount of glue right here on the top, because we want it to stick really good and i'm just going to place that tip right there and we're going to hold it here for a second and let it dry. So it's nice and set because even though hot glue dries really quick, it also moves around for a couple seconds until it's really set. So we want to make sure it's set and gon na stay there. So once we have the top one, then i'm gon na glue this next one and it's gon na go about right. There oops it already got stuck there. So it's going to go on this half of the clip and see that i'm just going to make sure. I got it in the right spot, so we're going to put that one right there. Let that sit and then we're gon na add the third one over here on the other side, just like that. Okay, so we have all three of our clover leafs, i'm just going to let them dry and so now you could leave it this way, but it does you don't really want to see this this center part right here, so you could add a rhinestone or any Kind of like button - or you know anything you want for the middle i'm going to add. I have these two buttons, so i'm going to glue this little green one on top of the white one. So i'm just going to put a little bit of glue there glue him on there like that, and then i'm going to glue the whole thing right to the middle. So then, it just kind of finishes off that that look, so i'm going to actually put the glue on the button for this one. You want a decent amount of glue because you want it to sit or stay. You know stuck so i'm just going to place that right there and you could use the e6000 if you wanted to make sure it was a little stronger than the hot glue. But since you're really only going to wear this in march, then the hot glue should be good, since it's not going to be a bow, that's worn a lot! So there we have it very cute. First ain't patrick's day, um, shamrock four leaf clover. Well, i guess it's three leaf clover clover, hair bow for your princess. Thanks for watching and i'll see you next time on bitty bum, boutique tv, you

Siobhan Harrington: This is adorable! I love all your videos... Thank you for sharing your creativeness!! Oh, and just a little PS - if you ask all my family members in Ireland, they'd say that shamrocks have 3 leaves, while clovers have 4.  Not sure if that's an actual botanist fact or just an Irish specificity!! Either way, it's a great hair clip.... Happy St. Paddy's Day! 

Tina Cannon: I love it! I'm about to make this for my 3 yr old granddaughter. She will love it! Thanks for sharing!
