Ribbon Hair Clip Holder

We are out of town for the Independence Day holiday, so no Thankful Thursday this week. It will be back next week. Instead I have a simple, organizing craft for you! Enjoy!

---------------------------------------------------------------------

Recently, I was at my cousin's home, and she has three daughters. In their cute tropical bathroom, they had a clip holder for hair clips made of ribbon and a hanger. It was so cute, and I thought, "I could make that!" 

My two young daughters have a very crowded hair accessories drawer in our downstairs bathroom, and I decided that this clip holder would be a good way to display and see them easier.

 I took a red wire children's hanger, some $1.00 red ribbon that I got on clearance at Safeway and my glue gun and went to work.

 I knew the spot where I wanted to hang this display in my bathroom, so I knew how long to trim the ribbon, which was about 12 inches for each length of ribbon. I trimmed six lengths of the ribbon, and cut the bottom edge at an angle. I chose a wire hanger so I could turn the bent top so it would hang easily on the bottom of our bathroom cupboard. Since we also have a towel ring there for our hand towel, we don't use this space under the cupboard. It was the perfect spot!

 I glued the ribbons over the hanger with a dab of hot glue on each ribbon at the top. I folded the ribbons over so they wrapped around the hanger nicely. Then I turned the bent top and hung it in the bathroom! I added my daughters' hair clips, and this held almost all of them!

I think it turned out cute, and my girls love to pick out a clip from the holder!

I love these verses about RED/ scarlet which remind me of the ribbons...

Isaiah 1:18
“Come now, let us settle the matter,” says the LORD. “Though your sins are like scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they are red as crimson, they shall be like wool.

Joshua 2:21-22

²¹ “Agreed,” she (Rahab) replied. “Let it be as you say.”

So she sent them away, and they departed. And she tied the scarlet cord in the window.

²² When they left, they went into the hills and stayed there three days, until the pursuers had searched all along the road and returned without finding them.

Proverbs 31:21
When it snows, she has no fear for her household; for all of them are clothed in scarlet.
