DIY: Hair Clip Holder

I was browsing through Michaels when I first got my gears going for crafting. I wasn't sure what I would make. I ran across a thin wooden frame. I really liked the shape to it. Very Vintage!


Few ideas I had for it: Mirror, Picture Frame, Chalk Board and Hair Clip Holder. 
I ended up going with the hair clip holder.

Materials:
 Wood Frame
Acrylic Paint
Foam Brush
Hot Glue Gun & Glue
Ribbon 5/16"
Lace Ribbon



Instructions:
  1. Paint the 1st side of the frame and let dry.
  2. Paint the 2nd side and let dry. 
  3. Cut 4 pieces of ribbon, measuring from top of frame to the bottom.
  4. Flip frame to the back. Mark 4 dots, spaced out, going across the top of the frame.
  5. Hot glue the 1st end of the ribbon to dot one and let dry.
  6. Hot Glue the 2nd end of the ribbon to the bottom of the frame, keeping it straight & tight.
  7. Continue steps 5 - 6 for the other three remaining ribbons.
  8. Use the lace ribbon, loop through the to holes on the frame, tie a knot (leaving room so you use it to hang the frame) and make a bow. 
  9. Voila!
