How about snaps? you could sew a snap to each side of the barrette (the female part of the snap if you plan on wearing it without the headband occasionally) and then attach the male part of the snap to the headband.

What is your barrette made of?

If it's the kind made with a leather casing, you can tack your beaded strip onto the leather casing through the holes. (that's what i do.)

Hey..here's another idea... if you make your headband so that it ties on..you can just put the barrette over the tying part...

it is made out of the fun foam stuff...... so snaps would probably work! or i could try the ties!

Thanks
