• Blank barette

Tools

• Sewing needle

Directions

1. Cut four leaves in the shape shown at right. Mine measured about ¾ of an inch tall, and nearly an inch wide. I cut two lobes into each petal and flipped the flower over, because I prefer the shape of the bottom of the flower for the center of the clover.
2. Sew the leaves together as shown above.
3. Tie the threads together tightly at the ends.
4. Sew the clover onto a barrette.
5. Clip into your little lucky charm’s hair.
