Headbands galore!

Because Meg and I are super A.D.D., and cannot focus on one project, we are now into making these headbands. If you live in Utah, you see them EVERYWHERE and on EVERYONE. Apparently, Whitney Port of "The Hills" made them famous. And they are really fun to make. We have been playing with crochet and knitting for these headbands. Decormama is having a giveaway of our headbands over at Finding Fabulous. Go check her out and sign up to win! When we find a new craft, we go OCD for a while. (Can you be A.D.D. and have OCD?, I guess we are living proof). Anyhow, the good news for you is that since we are making so many, we are offering them in our etsy store.

The flowers are all on clips so that they are interchangeable for your headbands to match your outfits.

Doesn't Meg look gorgeous here? It is because she is gorgeous! (and if you ever want to compliment me, tell me I look like her )

Here is my darling model. My four girls have been sporting these all over town!

Come back next week for a giveaway that has nothing to do with headbands.

I want to make lots of monster creatures.

I made this little guy for our mom, and I guess I kinda invented him. He's crocheted, and I used this free ball pattern for his body alternating colors every four rows. His arms started with a chain four and increased to eight I believe for probably 5 inches. His eyes, mouth and ears are all made of felt and stitched onto his face. I was happy with this quirky little guy!

Our mom loves to host a Halloween party with loads of grandchildren. So I wanted to add to her cute decorations, and I love me a banner.
Using a cardboard template and rotary cutter I got my perfect triangles and sewed them to a ribbon. Using fusible web I traced the letters and ironed them accordingly. A good tip: If you aren't the best with your applique skills (me) it's awesome to use invisible thread. I think colored thread can make more of a statement, but until I can sew straight better, I'm sticking with invisible thread.


And there you go! Happy Halloween everybody, can't wait to check out all the goodies and eat a few too.

Let me know if you need any more specifics!
