Appliques


Did you know that you can mix and match any of my appliques on alligator clips with any hat or headband?  It's a great way to be creative and add versatility to a gift!  Here are my appliques.
Here's an example of the versatility of having an applique on an alligator clip - it can be used on any hat or headband as well as being used alone as a barrette.

Flowers can be made in a variety of styles and colors.





And here is the holiday pack - your choice or wide or narrow headband with 4 applique clips for $18.  You can choose a simple beanie instead with 4 clips for $27.
