Pretty Hair Clips and Grips

Sometimes when it's taking me a while to make something, it's good to take a break and do something that gives quick results.

It's a great way to combine my love of buttons, felt and fiddling with bits and pieces.

 They're so simple to make and something Imogen and I can do together with quick results.

 I have so many buttons, it takes a while to muddle through them to find a pair... but it gives me an excuse to spend time with my buttons... oh dear, do I sound a bit sad now!

Imogen loves doing different things with her hair so can never have too many hair slides and grips, and they're something quick and easy to make and sell on my folksy and facebook pages.

The bottom ones are sparkling, but it doesn't show well in the picture.

Have to have some crochet too...

So simple to make (must do a little tutorial in the future) if anyone's interested.

I have 99 followers on here now, how lovely people are. I think it's about time I have a giveaway. I'll just wait to reach 100 :)

Girlie Times

It's the school Easter holidays, so time for some girlie pampering. I do like to paint my nails from time to time, and the odd sweep of nail art, but haven't tried this before

I thought they looked really pretty in the shop, delicate flowers and a pale pretty pink background.

I found them a bit fiddly to put on, and though I've had some good, positive comments, I'm not sure I'll use them again, we'll see.

Imogen had her hair curled, she loved it, lots of gorgeous ringlets. She has a poorly graze at the top of her nose - she banged it with her own knees on the trampoline, thank goodness she didn't give herself a couple of black eyes!
