Blythe On A Budget: Hair Accessories
Written on October 6, 2010 at 12:00 pm by MichelleFiled under: Article with tags: blythe on a budget
One of the nicest things about Blythe besides their eye mechanism is the versatility to carry off many different looks. With a simple roll of their eyes, they can either look coy or annoyed. With their lids partway down, Blythe looks miffed or sleepy. But with their hair… Blythe has a lot of hair to cover that large head (and ego!) One thing that I really like is using hair accessories on my dolls, like little clips or ties. And the best place to find these would be at dollar stores.
You can find small clips and little hair ties for low prices and they usually come in an assortment of different types or colours or even various sizes.
At one of my local dollar stores, I was able to find packages of 15 small clips in 5 different colours for just $1 + tax. They had two different colour sets, so I just bought one of each so I could have some variety. I’ve also purchased small bags of plain hair elastics that were much too small for my hair, but perfect for tying up dolly hair at $1 + tax for a total of 200 pieces.
There are usually very few ‘gems’ to be found at a dollar store for Blythe, but I think the most useful ones are hair accessories, which can be double the price with half the number of items at most any other store!
What are some of your impressive dollar store finds for Blythe?
I, too, found some basic colored TINY clippies at my dollar store that were just the right size for my girls!
Agreed! Hair clips at dollar stores are cute and small enough! Too small for me but perfect for my dolls! 🙂 I’ve also found $1 wooden furniture that works too! I had to sand them a little, then I painted them, but it worked out nicely (and inexpensive!).
