like with extensions in your hair or to make a donut bun insert that is covered with hair.
For the second one dontspeakdefeat has a great tutorial in her fotki

Good luck on your challenge! 
Back in college my hair was nape length. I would take a bit of wefts, part my hair in the back and insert the wefts (no pins or adhesive), and hold it in place while I brought my hair down over it. I then put it in a ponytail and proceeded to make a bun. It was a bit unorthodox but it worked very well. Now I just use the sock buns covered in silky panty hose!

Ok, here is a picture.
This piece of wefted hair has several clips on it. I just clip it in and then put my hair up.
I sewed some clips on a piece of weft hair, but then I bought a nicer one online.
The one I bought was thicker and the clips were sewn on more tightly than I could get it.
I bought a set that had about 5 pieces, but I only used one for this style.

Oooohhh!!! Okay, that's what I'm aiming for! Off to the BSS to see if Mr. Lee (the owner ) has clip-in wefts... If he doesn't, I'll be back to get directions on how to make my own! I know y'all will help me...
Have a fabulous, glorious day! (I had an argument with my husband but I'm faking it 'til I make it!)

If he does not have the clips-ins i am sure he has the actual clips and thread for weaving. You can make them yourself. It took me forever to get it right, but I did it.
But, still the one I bought premade, was 10X better. It was not that expensive, either. I got them from this seller:
http://stores.ebay.com/Hair-Art_W0QQcolZ4QQdirZ1QQfsubZQ2d999QQftidZ2QQtZkm
She shows the Yaki ones in the smaller sets, but you can email her and get pricing for other pieces in the Yaki.
For example, I purchased one 10 inch wide piece in Yaki color #1 even though it is not listed. She just sent me a Paypal invoice for it. I think she even sold me a 2 inch wide piece initially so that i could try it out.
Note: Her 1B is more light brown.

HoneyDew, HoneyDew! I went to Mr. Lee... He knows what I'm talking about but doesn't carry because there's no market for it around here (there also wasn't a market for the satin covered sponge rollers until I asked him to get them in and when he did they sold out in a weekend but, who am I and what do I know?)
So, I'm about to check out your website link and I'll report back.
BTW, I picked up the Olive Oil Serum... Girl. The bomb. God bless you. :notworthy

What I do is add a phony pony and then take the bottom of the pony and wrap it around it self.....take a pony tail holder and slide it over the bun to secure it in place. I also use bobby pins for parts of the hair that wont stay up, but most of the time the pieces that fall make it look more real.
I have pictures in my album. Nothing in much detail, but you can get an idea of what it looks like.
