Corona-cation Hairpins
I wanted to include Erika’s exact words because I think she explains her inspiration so well <3
I was inspired by the beautiful Blue Hawaii cocktail. One can’t help but be whisked away with a fruity and fun drink in hand. Many of us won’t be able to go on vacations this year but we can still bring some bright joy and tropical goodness into our style and backyards.

I am a big fan of Forty Winks jewelry. I was so lucky to get to work with the brand last year when she released some stainless steel earrings and I am so happy to show off these hairpins to you as well.
Now for some info on the hairpins themselves. Erika mentions this in her description, but these hairpins are solid. They are not some 50 pack “loose easy-open” hairpins. I would say that you want to be careful with opening them because they are strong. They definitely stay in your hair though! I had no issues wearing the pins with the cabochon hanging down. I think I would have even felt comfortable wearing them all day that way without worrying that they would fall out!
I bet you could also use these for bookmarks, or in your hair as is typical, or as Erika mentions, for holding masks up. Heck, maybe you put them on your wallet or purse as decoration! There are plenty of options.
Price: $10.00 USD
Inspiration: Blue Hawaii cocktail
Cap: 37 US / 3 UK
Description: Set of 2 silver tone copper hairpins, individually handpainted with 4 indie flakie polishes in lime green, orchid, bright aqua, and yellow. Each is unique but I will do my best to make pairs resemble each other. These can be used in any way “bobby pins” can. They are functional and hold extremely well. If adding to finished hairstyles insert with care as removal and re-placement can be difficult. I’ve recently been using them to attach my masks to my hair as my face is apparently child sized and masks just fall off.
Size: 14 mm cabochon, pins 2 inches in length
