Accessories and Kissy Lips

I was at Hobby Lobby the other day doing a bit of shopping and I came across these awesome little accessories.

  This one is a black vinyl flower that we've clipped in her hair but it also has a pin clasp on the back so you can use it on clothes.

Here's another one we bought that we pinned to her jacket but it can also be used as a hair clip.  I think that' such a smart idea to have both options on the back of the flowers.  I think I'm going to start doing that with some of our accessories from now on.

To show off her new flower we did a Kissy Lips Messy Bun.  These are really easy but you want to have your elastics handy.  Start with a regular ponytail.  Now grab another elastic and wind it like a ponytail until the last time around when you're only going to pull the hair through the elastic slightly.  Now this will give you a little poof.  Grab another elastic and go around the entire poof and the extra hair until the last time around when you will pull the entire poof through but only a little bit of the extra hair.  This will give you your second poof.   

Rough it up a big with your fingers and don't be afraid to pull at it a bit to give it that messy look. 

Our church had a fun little activity day (Super Saturday) where we made these fun bow holders. 

This was a perfect craft for us because my princess is a dancer and has TONS of hair accessories! 

 Cute huh!
