HEADBANDS HEADBANDS AND MORE HEADBANDS

HEADBANDS 

GLORIOUS BEAUTIFUL HEADBANDS!

That is exactly what I've been doing today! I made 5 different headbands. I bought 7 packs of headbands at the dollar store and I wrapped them all in ribbon. Then I added a different embellishment to each one.  Here they are:

This one I wrapped in a cream colored ribbon. Then I made an oversized bow out of the same ribbon and covered it in a black lace.

Check out the new camera I snuck into this pic!!!!

This headband is covered in a teal ribbon with fabric rosettes.

This one is also a teal ribbon, with a big pink daisy from a dollar store bouquet.

Here is one with another dollar store flower. This one is on a cream colored ribbon. (Sorry for the last pic- i had to crop myself out and the zoom looks bad)

Finally, I made one of those pom poms out of fabric and put it on a black ribbon.

Which one is your favorite?!

Frames

I have a ton of scrapbook paper and I didnt know what to do with it because I pretty much gave up scrap booking (how many books does one person need?!). So I found this. At $1.00 a pop how could a go wrong! So I picked up 2 from Michaels and got to work. I also used some $0.99 stickers left over from the topiary project (Here), and I made more flowers from left over fabric from the magnetic board project (here).

Finished Project:

One of these is going to go to my b/f's little sister for Christmas. The other is just another misfit craft. lol 

More Topiarys

So after the spring topiary I was kind of hooked. This time though, I wanted something a little smaller. I was going to create the flowers again, but I found some for super cheap at Michaels. I also put fragrance oil  under the flowers to give it a nice vanilla scent. Everything else, was purchased at the dollar store. These will be gifts for the teacher I aide for, and the student teacher in the room.

hard to tell, but the bowls are heart shaped!

isn't that bow adorable?!

I don't know what they will do with these, but they are so freakin cute! Aren't homemade gifts the best!

Topiary

I was searching through one of my favorite blogs and found this: diy spring paper flower topiary. I knew right away I wanted to try it, and the instuctions were right there! So with a few simple purchases from Michaels and the Dollar Store (That styrofoam ball wasn't cheap!) I came out with this:

I will be giving this to a co-worker of mine for Christmas. I hope she likes it!
