DIY: No-Slip Grip for Clippies

You can add a no-slip grip to any clippie (they will stay in the finest hair) quick and easy using cabinet/drawer liners!

I found a roll of it at Wal-Mart for around $5 - and it'll last forever! If you can't find it in your area, Amazon has a 12" wide roll for $8.99 and free shipping. It's the same kind I bought from my local Wal-Mart.

Materials Needed:
roll of drawer liner
sewing gauge or ruler
rotary blade and mat (optional)
glue gun and sticks
scissors


Using the rotary blade and mat, cut a 1/4" wide strip of liner. Then cut the strip into 1" long pieces.

If you're making a snap clippie, hot glue the piece of liner (smooth side down) to the end of your ribbon (make sure it's centered) before covering the clippie with the ribbon. Then slip the liner end of ribbon on the clippie and continuing covering it as usual. If you'd like to learn how to make one, go have a look at my tutorial, How to Cover a Snap Clip with Ribbon for more information.

When I'm making a pinch clip, I glue the no-slip grip after I've lined it. If you'd like to learn how to make those, you can find my tutorial here.

See how easy that was?! A snap!


UPDATE:
It's nice to hear that this tip has been so helpful - but I can't take credit for it! I found it online at a lot of different websites and blogs when I was learning how to make clippies.

I tried it out and it does work great (I like the liner that I'm using in my tute the best) so I thought I'd share it with my readers!

Have fun!
