Is this MLP?
« on: January 29, 2012, 03:25:17 PM »
Small, red, plastic barrette with 2 birds on it.  I got it in a lot of ponies from eBay, it was in Cotton Candy's mane.

I don't think so.  I've never seen it before.  It is cute though! :)

They're vintage barrettes for children's hair.  They were super popular in the 80s!


Here, I found some on etsy:

Thanks StoryDreamer!  I didn't think it looked like MLP, but there are a million other lines it could have belonged to.  I never even considered it might be a kid's barrette. Great video, btw.

Oh my! So many memories! I had those in yellow and blue! My mom would put them in my hair. I guess a little girl used her barrettes on her ponies.
