Using some heavy duty glue, I adhered the fabric/ribbon to the barrette, allowed time to dry, and trimmed around the edges. Needlefelted embellishments spruced them up a bit!

And here is me, having short hair for no other reason than it is too much of a hassle to grow it out. Actually, my hair is thick and curly and it gets so heavy and hot when it is longer. Truth be told, I have always longed for long hair but have never had it once in my life. Now I think I am way to old to grow it out. 45. Is that too old for long flowing hair?
