With the arrival of our new Au Pair, Julia from Italy, last week I have found a part time job and had heaps more sewing time (35 Hours per week more!!!) and not been completely strung out home alone while Vic is away. We found Julia on
here - so far it is heaven I can recommend it to anyone. This is Julia and the monkeys at the beach at which we stopped only to put our toes in and of course it resulted in everyone getting very wet!!
And so the sweat shop opens for business - I have finally got the hair clips to work (Thanks to my wonderfully handy Dad) and made around 300 Hair Clips and Push Pins this week. I love it - I used
Selleys Araldite to glue the hair clips and pins after trying MANY others even had some Gorilla Glue sent from Canada, not sure if Araldite is the best so would love any feedback about glue you have tried. For the snap clips Dad figured out how to rivet them properly after many many failed attempts from me Hooray!!

Congrats on the au pair, oh the time you now have is enviable!
Do you have market plans?
The clips and pins all look great.
Kerri, I like your hair clips =)
Hi Kerri,
I have been trying to make some snap clips with fabric buttons for ages for my grandkids and cannot work out how to pop rivet the clip to the button.... I have managed to track down the buttons with holes in the back as well as a button covering machine... do you have any idea how to pop rivet the buttons to the snap clips?
Thanks,
Natalie
love you hair clips ,I want to make some hair net but never can make as cute as you did.
