WOW!!! Serious slacking!

Okay.....so I have not blogged in a LONG time. Not that anyone reads this anyway!

I have become obsessed with hair clips. It all started when my son had a birthday party to go to a few weeks ago. I have made many in the past, but the little girl who's birthday it was, it very "girly" and always looks cute. I decided to make her a few handmades, in addition to her other present.

Since then, I have had dreams, woke up thinking about what I wanted to do, etc.....I mean, really.....OBSESSED!

I have been experimenting with different materials, and right now am on a nylon kick. Those little knee highs at walmart are a cheap thrill for me lately! LOL!!!

I also went to Hancock Fabrics and raided their remnants.......found some cute fabrics that I am playing with for flowers.....

Not sure if they are worthy of sales, but the little girl I made these for seems to love them...she has worn them quite a bit. Yay me! ;)

Here are some pics of what I have done:



those three were given to the birthday girl.

I then had my bestest ask me if I could make some clips for her little princess, and she sent me a picture of what she was looking for. I didn't make them exactly, but these were for Isa:


I also made some baby presents for little baby boys that were born recently.....these were the gifts I sent to the bambinos:

for little Evan...


For little Nolan....


Then I just took to playing around with stuff....making more hair things. These were a couple of my playdates:



ahhhh......now I need to hunker down and work on an afghan for a friend of a friend whose mom passed away and was working on this. I am finishing it for her, and hope to do it justice.

Tomorrow is TGIF....YIPPEE!!!
