The clips that are made of flowers, that are in now? I saw a lady today in Soho selling them, for a cheap looking Gardenia she tried to charge me $30, I told her I was not a tourist Has anyone seen them around. You see it on sex in the city etc. Everyone is wearing them these days, its the new look and I want a couple to wear with my summer dresses. Thanks all

shamma...my mom makes these!!! she wanted to do them (in a broach form) for my shower last year...like sex and the city...

all she does is gets the flowers at Michaels (or any craft store) and hot glues it to a clip

Shamma--I actually saw a whole bunch of these in H&M in Westbury last week! The best part was they were all like $3.50 each!

Re: DOES ANYONE KNOW WHERE I CAN GET

I walked by a H&M yesterday and did not go in, and I was right in the heart of Soho... Thanks Leelee

Tammy see now if you loved me you would get it for me and visit me in Bklyn and bring it to me

You are almost there, I did not even notice, when did you do all this posting

Yes you LONG ISLAND girls, are so afraid of the city, as if it bites

Leelee, I might have to do that right after work.

Shamma: Are you ordering from any of those sites? If you do, let me know b/c I want one too...maybe we can order together and save on shipping and then make the exchange at the NW GTG!

Ive thought abuot doing them myself but the flowers at Micheals all look like crap.

Re: DOES ANYONE KNOW WHERE I CAN GET

Tammy sign off,that will help you

Stef, I am considering it. I was wondering if I checked H&M and Claires and see what they have and then, go from there. I mean I want them to look really nice, not cheesy

Sonicstef Posted: May 30, 2003 10:36 AM

Re: DOES ANYONE KNOW WHERE I CAN GET

Let me know how H&M's stuff is.

I would guess Claires would be pretty crappy but you never know.

Re: DOES ANYONE KNOW WHERE I CAN GET

Shamma, are you crafty at all?

I LOVE flowers.. alot of my friends and family say that Carrie from S&TC bit off my me because I would attach them to cuffs on my shoes, jackets, bracelets, necklaces and hairclips all the time.

You can make them yourself.

buy a *bunch* of flowers that you want.. then go to Michael's and buy the actual bare bones naked clip.. then you can do 1 of 2 things.. either 1.. sew the flower onto the clip or 2 using a gluegun, gluestick the flower onto the clip!

if you search for the picture thread, at my eparty I had flowers in my hair..

Re: DOES ANYONE KNOW WHERE I CAN GET

Thanks ladies, since I want to wear it tomorrow I guess I cannot try my hand at it until about next week.

Stef, I will let you know, I will stop in there this evening.

Marcella, where are your e-party pix?? a lot of people were doing what the people on S&TC was doing a long time before they made it famous. I guess you are crafty, wow. Thanks for sharing the tips.

FutureMrsTC Thanks for the website.
