Vintage Earrings Turned DIY Hair Bobbies

This row of sparkly screw back earrings at the thrift store for $2.99 caught my eye.
I immediately envisioned fancy hair pins! I cut the screw backs off using wire cutting pliers. I used bobby pin blanks from Hobby Lobby and E-6000 glue. I impatiently waited for them to dry overnight. And come morning? Success!

 The black flowers are my favorite! I thought the blue floral cabochon made a nice ring too. I bought this ring blank on my trip to Queen Street West in Toronto in January, but I think Hobby Lobby carries them too.
