Headband: take 2

I made one more headband today! I love them! I think I got it now. Tomorrow I'm going to check into getting some more and oddly enough more matching ribbon. I have a lot of ribbon but I don't seem to have a lot of 4 colors that match. Here's the one I did today:



At first I thought it was too busy but I liked it once I put it on. This is my new addiction, I think. Now I just need to find more plain headbands. I can order online too I guess.

When I get around to it I'll be listing on Etsy those bows I posted the other day. I don't know why I haven't done it yet! Maybe it's the headbands. Yeah. That's a good excuse!

Headbands Yay!

This was sooo easy once I figured it out! Thank you YouTube for that video! The written one I found was too hard for me to follow. Seeing it made so much more sense. I'm excited to have figured this out!!! I'm going to have to buy some more bands now!




I'm thinking my next will consist of navy blue, red, yellow, and maybe silver? I'm going to need to get some silver and a certain type of yellow though. :) I could do white instead of silver too. Hmmm. Decisions decisions.

I like that I can sit and watch TV while doing this, too. LOL! Ahh, I love my quiet time at night.

Here's what I've been working on

I'll try to list them on etsy later on when my kids aren't bouncing off the walls.








My favorite is the black, red, and white. We'll see if it makes it to Esty :).

My new bow pt 2

Here it is! It's a little lopsided but what do you want from my first attempt? :)

Today at preschool pickup a mom commented on how cute Maddie's hair was and she had this in it so it can't be too bad right? Actually, as rough as she plays you can't tell the loops are bigger on one side because she doesn't sit still long enough. Well, that and her "sprout" on the top of her head was put in crooked too so nothing was centered haha!

I'm going to go try to create another before I have to get Alex from his second school and leave for an appointment!

New bow

I made a new bow. So far it's just going in Maddie's collection. It's sort of like this one:

Loopy Surrounds

but I only did one surround. It's cute. It's all in pink, white and brown and matched her outfit perfectly today-which I didn't plan haha! I made one more apple one sort of like it but after some practice I'll put them on my Esty.

I was sort of in a slump but I might make more of these. I sort of lost interest in sitting at my craft table trying to figure out what to make. These seem like fun!

So it's been awhile

With the craziness of our garage sale I haven't done much. I have a lot left over from the sale that I'm going to be listing on Esty for cheaper than normal! I want to get to that today. I love making them but hate hate HATE taking their photos. It's so time consuming. It needs to be done though so that's what I'll be doing later. Hopefully I'll get them listed on Etsy tonight!

I also made grab bags out of the clippies. I have 239438575930 clippies it seems. I thought throwing certain colors into bags will be great for people who just want certain colors and no preference. So far I have pink, blue, black & white and I'm working on green and purple.

I also bought some more french clips to make more of those. I found some cute apple ribbon that I could picture in Maddie's hair in October when we go to the orchard.

Now, I'm off to preschool pick up and then lunch! Then after lunch more play time before naps and THEN I can get to my stuff.

I should also mention that my Ecrater store is down because I took it off line for my garage sale. I used most of the clips in the sale so after I sort through everything it'll be back up!

Later gator,
