I think I bought this vintage 60's jewelry component in a jar of junk
jewelry at a garage sale. I was excited to find that it had all the original rhinestones! I used Gorilla brand superglue to adhere the component to a metal hair clip. I cleaned the plastic flowers with a Q-tip and rubbing alcohol first.
Almost any vintage component with a flat back can be glued to a hair clip. The style pin you use and the type of glue depends on the size and weight of the component. While I would have loved this on a bobby pin, there's no way it could support the component's large size and weight.
