I never been very
girly. I just am now getting in touch with my soft chewy center. My girls have been
benefiting from my new interest in all things pink and
poofy. Recently, I have been putting more of an effort into their hair. Thanks to blogs about little girls hair dos and my neighbor who should go in the hair book of
geniuses for the fabulous
styles she gives her girls, my girls are looking a bit more kept. When it comes to hair
embellishments there are a lot of options every where you go. However, I have got to be a creative and a
smidgen frugal. I have come up several idea's already as seen
here and
here. So now I will share one more idea.
You will need:
24 gauge wire
Package of beads (I got the pkg. shown in the picture at Wal Mart for $2)
Package of bobby pins
A few of the beads and bobby pins is all you will need.
Select 2
coordinating beads and cut about 3"-4" inches of the wire.
Slide one bead onto one end of the wire leaving enough wire to wrap around bead.
Push end of wire through the other side of the bead. You can do this a couple of times to secure the bead. Pull tight.
Twist the wire together with the top part of the remaining wire. ( I know, I need a new camera and maybe a new end user. If you have any suggestions for a new camera I am
listening. If you know of any
Internet camera classes I am still listening.)
Do the same with the other bead on the opposite end.
Then slip wire into bobby pin with a bead on each side.
Twist beads until secure on the bobby pin.
Then decorate that cute little head of hair. With these cute little buggers you can make one to
coordinate with each of your bows and flower clips.
Seriously, so cheap. So easy. So cute.
Curious buddies is Nickelodeons answer to the Baby Einstein craze. I might I say "Job well done!". I also found my copies at Wal Mart. I paid $5 dollars each for all but one copy. I paid 9.96 for our first one. They are not always $5 so keep a look out for them. However, I gladly paid full price for the first movie.
