Making - Hair Flair

Hello everyone!  I hope you all had a fabulous weekend!!  Us folks down here in Houston, Texas had some crazy rain that started on Friday.  Even with all the rain we still kept busy with a party, family get together time, household chores, and a little crafting thrown in the mix.  Our weekends are so booked, that I do not see a free weekend in sight for a while! (''.)  While being so busy on the weekends I still try to find the time to create.   

I'm fortunate enough to have a craft/sewing room...it's my get away place to think, read, craft, sew, and hoard store stuff - No Hubs allowed...even though he comes in to take stock in what I have in there,  or ask when did you buy this or that, or when I ask for a truthful  comment or critique on what I'm making.  I ♥ him!  

Okay enough of our gross love, lol....while I had a wee opportunity to get in there I made some {hair flair}, anything for the hair that's what I call it.  I'm so glad that I have nieces now, I can make them loads of hair flair and not have 3 million pieces for just myself.  I make them simple and I can make them fancy.  Since they're all still little I don't like to add beads or jewels because they will just rip them off of their little heads.  Here is some that I made, I would consider these simple but cute. ('',) 

Here is what was used:

felt

lace

glue gun/glue sticks

elastic hair band 

scissors

Cute and simple! Maybe I can wear it too!!

I love making stuff for my nieces....see I couldn't make stuff like this for my nephews!

Thanks for stopping by...I hope you like what I made. Leave me comments and let me know what you think!

Good news....I've been asked to make hair flair and tote bags to sell.  I'm pretty happy about that! I can't wait to get started.  I'm still up in the air about opening an Etsy shop or just selling the stuff on my own.  If you have a shop or sell on your own, please email me some pro & cons.  I'd really like the information.

Okay, this is not me - obviously.  But, I could have totally rocked this big flower on my head .....face paint - not so much!

This is me in my Sunday's finest!

feathers+flowers+pearls+hotglue = cuteness!!

 Okay, Okay....not really.  This is me in my fancy Fascinator that I made!  I was invited to a birthday Tea Party for my aunt.   The invite said wear Big hats, Lovely pearls and cute heels!!  I didn't want to wear a hat so I made this!  2 people won a gift for best dressed and "I" was one of the 2......YAY!!!

I think I want to make more to wear!! I love wearing   stuff on my head - hats, bow, flowers.....I like to dress up.  It was easy to make as well.

Thanks for stopping by!!

I'm here!!

So, I made it on time to work today!! Yippee!!  Plus I also did something with my hair...which I'm starting to think is not so plus. lol!  

I used Tousle me softly mousse....which on the commercial makes it seem like I can have that "dreamy, tousled, soft natural wave.....whip my hair back and forth, while playing an instrument on a chair" kind of hair.  Nope doesn't come close to it.  So now here is the score

• 1 point for softness, not the crunchy hair that I dread!

and

• 1 point for the nest looking thing that is now on the back of my head!



Nest Head!!



Then I have to wear it like this because, of course I don't have enough time to wash, rinse, dry and straighten!!  Oh well!

I guess I'll be trying something different tomorrow, plus honey really doesn't like my hair like this!  I told him that until I finish the Tousle me softly mousse, he'll have to just get used to it!! ☺
