I am so happy to be guest blogging on Mamma Tortilla today!

First of all I will let you know who I am. My name is Lindsay, I am the creator of LDCdesigns. It started two years ago (although I have been making things my whole life) when I began making purses and selling them while I was in High School. Then I began going to school at Acadia University in Nova Scotia where I began to blog about what I was doing and what inspired me. This summer, when I have less work to do I hope to start selling some of my things on Etsy. Anyways.. here is a bit of what I have been working on lately..

Normally I do mostly Purses and wallets like these :

However, since I ordered theses awesome bobby pins from AT Supplies, I have been working on making cute little hair pins. One of favorite bobby pins uses this awesome diy from A Beautiful Mess.

These little braided embellishments can be used for almost anything! Pins, hair clips, key chains.. whatever you can think up! I even made some little ones into earrings.

Here are a few of the bobby pins I have made lately

I also have made some larger ones into hair clips.
You can put some leaves on it like I did to make it look like a little flower!

You can also attach them and make a necklace. I really want to try and attach a bunch of little ones to make a bracelet.

I just love this diy because there are so many awesome possibilities ! If you want to try something else, you can use yarn and braid it instead of fabric. It is a really cool alternative to fabric.

I hope you find this DIY as useful and inspiring like I did!
