glittery gold barrettes

I have been on a gold trend lately. I see gold and other metallics everywhere and I just love it. So today I wanted to share with you a super simple little accessory. 
to make.
first. I found these gold barrettes on Amazon- I looked everywhere local, but had no luck.  
 second. Apply some mod podge to the barrette and then sprinkle on the gold glitter.
third. After the Mod Podge dried, I applied one or two coats of this Mod Podge acrylic sealer. I wanted to make sure that all of the glitter was glued down and I didn't end up with glitter all over my hair each time I wore the barrette.

  1. I'm a huge gold fan too so I just love this! A totally doable project and it would be perfect since I usually will pin my bangs back or to the side. Pinning for inspiration.

    Have a great day!
