HAIR CLIPS

ByOlga Nicolas

For those with thick hair, finding high-quality hair clips that hold securely throughout the day is not always easy.

I now offer polymer clay hair clips featuring a variety of decorative designs. The polymer clay element is securely riveted to the metal clip base. The rivets themselves are also handmade in my studio from thick brass wire.

To keep the video from becoming too long, I deliberately started with a polymer clay sheet that had already been decorated and baked. The creation of this sheet — using a variety of surface techniques and mixed-media approaches — is not shown in the video.

You can find these hair clips in my studio or in the online shop:

Until now, I've always created earrings that are noticeable when you look...
