Hair pins - supplies and inspiration?

I know for sure that I do NOT want a tiara or tiara-like comb for my wedding updo, so what I've been considering is a soft french twist (or something similar) with hair pins tucked along the side(s). I'm still hunting for the perfect veil, but I've narrowed it down to something single layered (plus maybe a blusher) and very sheer to wear high on my head above my hair. I like the idea of something pretty in my hair that can be seen through the veil, plus I'll take the veil off for the reception. I have yet to find the perfect hair pins, and there's no way I'm paying 40-100 bucks apiece when I know there has GOT to be a way I can make them myself for much less.

I know they are probably still more than you wanted to spend, but the little guys are $30 each.

I bought some from them, and it was basically a hair pin, with silver wire and metal flowers with rhinestone cystals. Totally doable, if you have the crafty gene (I don't!). Bead shops, bead shows, or even the Intergem gem and jewelry shows (if you live near one) would be the best possibilities for finding the supplies. *** Love does not consist in gazing at each other, but in looking outward together in the same direction.
