You know what I love? Fun and simple projects. They’re the best, but you know what makes them even better? When you can incorperate something meaningful into them and create a “useable” memory! Like these DIY Seashell Hair Pins! They’re so easy to make, but if you’ve collected the shells yourself, they’re full of meaning and a great reminder of your adventures!

Hot Glue

E6000 Glue

Instructions:

Fill the inside of your seashells with hot glue so you have a flat surface to place your bobby pin. Let the glue dry.

Once dry, glue a bobby pin end to the sea shell.

After the hot glue is dry, cover the glued in with a bit of E6000 glue.  E6000 is a super strong glue that will make sure the shells don’t accidentally fall off over time.
