I have blogged about our stock of European vintage hair barrettes a few times. We have large stocks of barrettes and not only are they my favorites but they are amongst our biggest sellers on our website.
What I love most about the barrettes is not only the actual barrette but the card that it comes on. I have taken a few and framed them and hung them up in my daughters bedroom... take a look at some of the good girls on the cards..
I am sure you will agree that these ladies look like butter would not melt in their mouths... pure and ever so feminine.
Each card is it's own little piece of art.
This card makes me laugh as the picture of the lady is a wee bit seductive in her evening gown and yet they have paired her up with the little duck barrettes!!
Last but not least the good old faithful bobby clips - love the lady on this card she has a really cheeky look on her face
These are just a few of the cards that I love - I am sure you would agree that the old graphics on the cards are wonderful and fun. Think of the different graphics we have now to what was then.. not only that but the role woman played then to now! Food for thought.
