Summer means wearing my hair UP and off my face as much as possible. This reminds me that I like to wear hair accessories, and I like unique ones. I took a trip over to Etsy and found some really cute handmade floral hair accessories by Design By Night. The owner of the shop is Kolleen Kilduff from Baltimore, Maryland. She’s been featured in several Etsy Registry’s – and with good reason. I got a chance to personally review her handmade flower hair clips for myself.

I love that the hair flips feel sturdy, are silver so they match my silver jewelry, and aren’t too long. I hate when you have a super long bobby pin and you can’t get the whole thing to stick properly in your hair. A shorter clip means it’s easier to adjust in your hair – and I really did find that to be true. I also love seeing the craftmanship in the flowers, which is very clear when you study them. Each petal is handmade, and it feels very special in my hands to know that.

I had a special order of two cream-colored flowers, usually they’re paired with a smaller bobby pin. But you can always ask her for two flowers. She also offers handmade flower headbands and peacock hair clips with little jewels. It’s all about making the hair fabulous.

Moved by the potential for beauty in anything, Kolleen carries around a camera with her at all times. Sounds like me and my notepads! You never know when inspiration will strike, or call.
