Okay, I seriously love Anthropologie. It’s definitely up there on my list of favorite stores, right there with Target and Nordstrom.
Most things Anthropologie sells are worth the higher price tag, in my opinion. But once in awhile, something sneaks in there that makes me scratch my head and say “for real?” Take pushpins with pom poms glued on them, for example.
$15 for a set of 12 pushpins?
No thank you. I’ll spend my $15 on a crystallized bobby pin or metallic hair tie, thank you very much. And I’ll make my own pom pom pushpins for a fraction of the price!
Literally all you need are some pre-made pom poms, wide-base pushpins and a hot glue gun.

A knock off of those push pins has been on my to-do list. They are too expensive not to try to make them! Yours are darling!
Bre Eggert says
Hi, Emily! Yes – I agree 100%! The perfect, easiest knockoff. Thanks so much for your sweet note!

What a fun project! Your push pins are so cute! Definitely a great choice to DIY rather than paying retail. 🙂
