Newness Coming Soon!

So my sista from another mother is going to be having a little boy soon and since she lives in Ohio, I will not be attending her shower. HOWEVER, I WILL be making her shower gifts for her! I have a few ideas rolling around in my head and cannot WAIT to get the fabric and supplies and start working on them!! I am also going to be making my husband's Jedi robe for our up and coming end of summer party to go with the mask portion of his costume! I am so excited! If the baby items go well, I will be adding them to my inventory. The robe, well, let's just say it is going to take a lot of patience to make that I hope to have! Besides that, I am waiting on a friend to pick out colors for another project that I will also be busy working on. I am super excited for the up and coming newness!! Which brings me to my dilemma. My name. Should I change it? Since I am diverting to things other than hair bows and bugs, I am thinking I should. If I do, I am thinking I should have a contest here on my blog. What do you all think? I could probably get some good promotions if I DO. Until I figure it out, all ideas are welcome!

Nothing new to show but keep on watching for the new projects!!!

~Headbands with Hair Clips~

Here is the newest addition to Bugz In My Hair! You can find it also on my etsy page by clicking the title or my link on my sidebar. I LOVE making bugs! And what a better way to add a little "oomph" to a cute baby than add a bug! Here you have an interchangeable headband (I have pink and white)with the ability to add ANY clip or barrette to match that special outfit! I am offering this up on my site for $10 each. It includes 3 small clips or barrettes of your choice plus free priority shipping to anywhere in the US!! Sooo, head on over to my store and check it out!

Next project will be the surprise project and will be coming soon!!

Pot Holder and Toddler Hat

Ahhh, another relaxing Sunday and I am FINALLY getting to post my 2 new creations! I know they aren't hair accessories, but those will come some other day this week...I made more! Anyway, we have a pretty simple "pot holder" in a light bluish color. It is plain, yes, but I didn't want to ruin any of my other fabric just in case I screwed it up missed a stitch or two! It is made with a fat quarter and a wash cloth. Pretty simple, washable and definately usable!! It was so easy to make I cannot wait to make more! I was so excited that THAT project turned out I went ahead and started another, a fluted toddler hat. Now this one had me on my machine cursing for over an hour! After I finally got it, I went back and REREAD the directions just to realize I should have taken a nap before continuing on! Yes, I misread the directions and did the project wrong, but it came out soooo cute!! I have batman fabric to make another for my son but need to enlarge the pattern just a little so it will fit on his 5 1/2yr old head! Next project...it's a surprise! Who knows, it could be a blanket, pillow, hair bows or something else! Stay tuned!

Bible Cover and Crayon Caddy

So I dove in and made my daughter a cover for her dilapidated bible the dog got a hold of so she could take it to camp. It turned out pretty good. A little on the big side, but that is because I measured big instead of just right like the directions said! I did the same thing for a crayon caddy I made to take along crayons the kids are always using at restaurants. That's OK, I will get these two projects perfect and add them to my inventory. Both projects are made from cotton fabric fat quarters in fun fabric. Any beginner...well obviously not ANY...can do this! I am loving my fat quarters and cannot wait for my next project! If you would like to purchase either a bible/book cover or crayon caddy, please message me and I will give you details on how to measure your book and what colors I have available for YOU!

Next up, washable pot holders!
