Red Hair and a Velvet Bow

Red Hair and a Velvet Bow

Thank you so very much for all the very kind comments on my new hair color! It really means so much to me! Sadly Cole won't be home in time for a daily shoot so I thought I would show you a more clear hair shot. I definitely like it so much better with my hair naturally curly but I still can't get over the shock of color! Ha. Random side note- I'm thinking about making velvet hair bows for my shop again. Would anyone be interested?...Don't forget to enter the Sew Shoe Me Giveaway!

Feather Headpiece DIY

Feather Headpiece DIY

Pheasant feathers really have an autumnal wood nymph quality that I simply adore. I was hunting around my local JoAnn Fabrics when I found the perfect feathery pieces for my creations.

What you'll need: one feather strip, one feather piece, black elastic, black velvet ribbon, aligator clip, scissors and a glue gun. I found both feather pieces in the mask making section....Feather clip:


Step 1: make a simple bow from velvet ribbon.

Step 2: glue velvet bow to the bottom of the feather piece.

Step 3: glue alligator clip to back of the feather piece. Done....Feather headband:


Step 1: measure headpiece and the amount of elastic needed. Glue elastic to the inside ends of the piece.

Step 2: glue velvet ribbon around the ends of the piece to finish off. Done.

Both are so very easy!...Do you think you'll give them a try?

Yours,
