cp, they're tough to find!!!! Not the antiquiy part, but rather the hair pins part!!! I ended up making my own. But here are a few sites (in case you haven't seen them yet)
and here are some images (not sure if its your taste or not)
The hairpin with pearls on the left of the bottom image is the type of hairpin that I wore for my wedding. I made it myself, its easy, and if you want, I can FM you directions.
Alina - it's nearly impossible, you're right! Thank you so much for the links - some of the pins you posted are beautiful. If you wouldn't mind, I would love to see your instructions - your pins were beautiful!
Jenny5150 - that site has some gorgeous things...thank you!

Re: Websites for Antique Hair Pins or Clips
Great websites... I am looking for some hair pins as well.
Also, try 38th street (around 5th and 6th avenue) in NYC (if possible). They have a lot of stores. You just have to go in and out of each one... be sure to compare prices.
She told me to stay away from the spiral pins. The pins with the straight wire and the bobby pins types are better.
