Pair of CUTIES

It is so nice to have my own model now, however, 
I may "$$ pay $$" for all of the "dress up" once she is a teenager. 

Until then enjoy my Jae Bird wearing a headband and flower made from one knee high sock (& not even the whole tube of the sock). One would only need the whole sock if planning to make an adult headband. I got my socks at Gap for 70 cents a pair, so for less than 35 cents & 1 hour of cutting, sewing, gluing & picture taking I had a completed headband and flower.  



I've got a few projects that MUST get done, so watch for the tutorial in the coming week.

Jae Bird's Flower Garden

Here is the flower garden I made to hold all of Jae Bird's hair clips & bows.





Find yourself a cute pot or planter & cut some green flower foam to fit the opening (I stuffed the bottom of the planter with grocery bags, so that I would not need as much foam). I've used moss in the past to cover the foam & I've also made a quilted piece with buttonholes for the stems to come through. I opted for gathered fabric this time to bring in more of the raspberry color to her nursery. Glue or pin the chosen medium to the foam & start clipping on your favorite hair accessories to the stems (aka dyed flower marking skewers from the flower foam/wreath isle at Michael's).
