GIVEAWAY: Flowerz In Her Hair $25 Gift Certificate (and Coupon Code)

{This giveaway is now closed. Thanks to those who entered!}

When Big Sister E was 19 months old, I finally gave in to the pestering from family and friends (namely my husband) and allowed her to get a haircut. Her bangs were far too long and always in her face and, enticed by the fact that my brother claimed to be a good hairdresser, I allowed him to give her what was supposed to be a trim.

Years later and I still can't help but cringe looking at the before and after pictures.


From that day on, Big Sister E has only had one haircut and it was pretty much just a trim. She desperately needs another one and now Little Sister B's hair is also partway down her face and covering her eyes. However, instead of sending either of them under the scissors, I always keep a lookout for alternatives and places to get great hair clips and accessories at affordable prices. My newest favorite? None other than Flowerz In Her Hair.


From Simply Clippies, a collection of 34 colorful stripes, dots and other cute patterns to every size, shape and color of Bow, at FlowerzInHerHair.com you can find a huge array of gorgeous accessories for girls of all ages. Whether your little one loves Beanies or Flower Clips or needs a beautiful Flower Girl Halo for an upcoming wedding, this site has it all.

Not only is there a vast and impressive selection at Flowerz In Her Hair, but owner and creator, Amy Jackson, ensures that each item is of the highest quality and still manages to keep them inexpensively priced. I've come across sites that sell far fewer (and not as pretty) clips for at least twice the price of those here. In the end, all that matters is how they look though, right? In this case, you will not be disappointed!

Big Sister E, Little Sister B and I weren't sure where to begin in trying out the amazing variety of items that came professionally packaged from Flowerz In Her Hair. As soon as we began admiring one beautiful clip, our eyes were pulled to the colors of a different flower or the workmanship on something as simple as a ponytail holder. Even though the pictures on the website look cute, seeing the quality, details and charm in person is entirely something different.

Due to being older (and less likely to eat the accessories), Big Sister E had first choice at what she wanted to wear. Not surprisingly, she selected the Ribbon Flower I had picked in fuchsia in the medium size, one that I knew would be perfect both for her and her sister.

Everything about this hair clip is adorable. The alligator clip is well lined, the ribbon is perfectly sewn so that each petal curves upward, the flower is securely attached so that if it can withstand being tugged on and the non-slip grip holds it tight in place in my daughters' fine hair. The first time Big Sister E wore it out, she immediately received compliments.

As well as being worn directly in the hair, this Ribbon Flower looks great clipped right on one of the two Super Stretch Headbands that Amy included for us. For both of my girls, these nylon headbands slipped right on and stayed in place, an easy and effective way to keep their hair from falling into their eyes.

Being able to switch the clip attached to the headband really is handy, as now depending on the outfit or occasion, these will always be an option for style and function. Not one to be left out, Little Sister B was extremely pleased to try on the second headband with the incredible pink Funky Flower that she was happily admiring.

Is there anything cuter than a happy little girl with an adorable flower? If so, I haven't found it.

Featuring the same high quality features as the Ribbon Flower, I counted eight layers of petals that make up the Funky Flower clip we received. Eight! The top has a great iridescent shine that catches the light and the hint of polka dots (we're huge polka dot fans around here) is just the right finishing touch. If you're not looking for more pink, don't worry, there are 30 different Funky Flowers available to choose from in almost any color combination!

Although it was hard to top what we had already seen, Big Sister E and Little Sister B were willing to part with their flowers to see what else was waiting for them. What we found were great examples of the Cute as a Button collection from Flowerz In Her Hair.

Instead of using the cheap, plastic ponytail holders that we're used to for Big Sister E, we now have two great Cute as a Button Ponytail Holders with buttons that are covered beautifully with fabric and strong holders that match. The Cute as a Button Flower Clip (in medium) is just as high quality, from the sturdy, lined clip to the perfect combination of colors that I was able to pick from for both the petals and the button. I love that each item is personalized and different depending on what you choose!

For some reason if you can't find just the right item that you're looking for in all that Flowerz In Her Hair offers, remember that Amy will also create a custom piece just for you - and send you a picture proof before shipment to make sure it's exactly how you would like! What service!

An added bonus that I think is a wonderful feature for shopping at Flowerz In Her Hair is Amy's addition of a FREE Clip Holder with every purchase. Even though these are such a simple solution, I'm really excited to now have a way to hang clips for both of my girls instead of the previous throw-them-haphazardly-int0-a-box method that we were using.

Not only that, Amy would like to offer a discount to get you started shopping at Flowerz In Her Hair. Simply enter the coupon code mailcarrier to receive 10% off of any order over $10... and since all orders of $10 or more receive free shipping from Flowerz In Her Hair, you'll get that, too! Amy's generosity doesn't stop there, however, because...

My niece would look adorable in a beanie. She loves blue so I would choose the navy one and probably use a silver or white ribbon with a blue flower.
