Naptime Projects

Yesterday I put Henry down for his nap, (which is typically 3 hours or so), and grabbed my large craft bag, and begun a new project.  I have so many fabric scraps just sitting in a box, so I begun to create some new headbands.  I loved how the Yo-Yo headband turned out, so much that I thought it was time to play around with other sizes/materials.  I came up with some that I LOVE!!  I love making these yo-yo things so much, I am also thinking about making some sweet bib necklaces with them.  Although I am not sure how that will go.  Anyways, Here is how the headbands turned out.

Both are made with an assortment of fabric, buttons, and stretch elastic. 

I have also FINALLY completed all of the monotonous tasks that were required for my official MOVE OUT...so now 1 month after moving out, I can finally check out and get my deposit back!! Praise the LORD!! :)

Bright Sunshine Day

Wow, I was under the impression it was going to be yet another gloomy, rainy, day...however, out popped the sun, and it has been there ever since.  Today is going to be an awesome day!!  First I am working till around 5:30, then heading to church tonight. 


I just came across a few pictures of some old hair bows/flowers that I completed and sold. I kinda forgot about them, but am thinking its time to give them another shot.


Clockwise from the Top Left.

Maybe I will find some time tomorrow.....But, Probably Not!! :)

The Journey Begins

It is finally time for me to begin this journey through the blog world. I am so excited to get to share with all of you my latest projects/products that I am working on. I am have discovered a new method of creating hair things. FABRIC YO-YO's!!! I am in love with the simplicity of them, and the way the fabric all mixes and matches to create a one-of-a-kind look. I am working on new designs and styles, but this one is my first attempt.                                        



As most of you know, I have also been super busy lately, with the big dreaded "move". I officially moved out of my old place a few weeks ago, but it seems the checklist to getting the place move-out ready is never ending. Hopefully I will finish soon! As far as the new place. I am LOVING it!! For those of you who dont know, I have moved in with a family of 4 (soon to be 5). The little ones are adorable, and alot of fun. I can tell this is going to be a great situation already.
