DIY Hijab Pins 🍡

Assalaam everyone!

Today I finally sat down and made some hijab pins and listened to some Vidya Vox music. Btw, I think my friend Tashreekah is the milky version of Vidya. Idk.

I went and got some beads from the Bead Shop in Warwick Street, Claremont and some long Pear Pearl Pins from the Haberdashery in Warwick Street too. I used the nail glue that I already had which I use for all but gluing falsies onto my nails because no.

Anyway, let's get started.

Now that we've got what we need, we'll start by removing some of the heads of the pins. To be very honest, that tool didn't help me in removing them and I couldn't find a cutter at home so I used a brick and knocked them off so very easily.

I'm not sure why I didn't think to look for a hammer. Inner cave woman behaviour perhaps?

See?

Now we'll get creative and mix and match your jewels and glue them on. You need a really strong hold glue btw.

I've stuck them all together and now I feel like changing the colour so I used some nail polish and voila!

I stuffed a bed sock into a container and stuck my pins into it. I didn't feel like getting artsy fartsy with a pin cushion today.

Shukran/Thank you/Nkosi/Dhaniyaavad for reading and remember to follow me on here and on social media for regular updates that may not be on here. I would also appreciate it if you shared this with your family and friends.
