Which she doesn't do often.

Can I make her a wooden barrette.

Looks doable, but I am having trouble finding the hardware.

Nothing at Michaels, hoppy lobby etc.

any ideas

I'd have to check to see where I got them but I think it might have been here

Went to the site I posted but was not able to find them.

Bad memory?

May not be something they carry anymore?

How about something like this?

I was trying to find a picture of a turned disk with a hole in the center that a loop of hair is pulled through and held with a turned pin, but I'm not having any luck with the search. One of the lady turners at the local club demonstrated making one.
