Whimsical Flower Girl Hair Pins (+ Win!)

Posted December 20, 2013 by EmmalineBride | ♥ 2 Comments

Hi, loves! Earlier this week, we talked about felt wedding ideas you’ll actually love, a post which received positive, excited responses. (We’re glad you liked it!) And, one of the artisans we featured – Ordinary Mommy – is back in the spotlight today! We’re sharing some of her whimsical hair pins for your flower girl. One of the reasons why we love this shop (besides the fact that her work is awesome) is because of Faith’s sweet story of how her products are made. In her shop, Faith talks about how each piece is made with love and surrounded by family, adding: “I don’t have my own studio space, so I’m rather certain that each piece a person takes home with them tells stories of small girls painting and dancing, a wee gentleman conspiring to build his latest Lego creation, and the moments of chaos surrounding its making.“. Isn’t that sweet? Read on to see a few of our favorite flower girl hair pins and enter for a chance to win a set! Enjoy!

Whimsical Flower Girl Hair Pins

What would your flower girl love to wear in her hair? For starters, something sparkly. I mean, I’m twentysomething and sparkly still wins over simple, every time. Also, since there are only five days until Christmas, I found this set to be especially lovely this time of year.
