Cross Stitch Button Hair Clip

You push your fringe back halfway through a hot afternoon and it slides down again before you have finished typing. The bar behind each button is long and flat, so it takes a whole section of hair instead of pinching the ends. The cross on the front is the kind you find on a shirt button, closer to a uniform detail than an ornament. Nothing about it announces itself, which is why it gets worn on days you have not thought about your hair.
