a cheap bride's gotta do what a what a cheap bride's gotta do.
so, i absolutely love bhldn's dewed vines hairpin, but there's no way i'm gonna pay $140, even if it might be for my wedding. so here is my ghetto version (still a work in progress). i had some beads lying around and bought some gold wire for a few bucks at joann's. this isn't a tutorial by any means, i barely knew what i was doing. just a lot of guessing and twisting until kind-of resembled the original.

those actually look super pretty. I love that they're imperfect and it'll mean a lot more to you that you made them yourself.
They look great :)
How do you make the beads stick at the end of the wire? I'm asking cause I have absolutely no manual skills ;)
@lampart
actually the beads aren't stuck there! i strung the wire through the bead and just twisted it tightly, does that make sense? hope it helps!
You are so brilliant! Those are the prettiest pins. Can you make me a set? ;)
