Glue
a square of buckskin directly to the backside of a barrette, leaving an
un-glued channel down the center for quill insertion. This method will hold your plumes very securely. |
Use
thin buckskin thongs to tie your plumes to the backside of your barrette.
The ties are easily adjusted to hold your plume at any height you desire.
|
Use
2 barrettes to secure the plume directly to your hair, then if desired, wear your
beadwork on top to hide the barrettes.
