DIY- Headband Holder

Now since I have two little girls, I have collected quite a collection of flowers, bows and headbands! Buying and making accessories for little girls really is addicting!  Having a place to put everything is definitely a challenge.  Here is a very easy way to store headbands.  The best part about it is that it did not cost me a thing!  I had everything at my house!

I don't know if you remember my Old Window Makeover, but I had some left over fabric from that window in their room.

Then I got a new roll of paper towels and rolled the material around it. 

Then I just tucked the left over material in the paper towel holes.

 This was SUPER easy and now I have my headband organized and it actually looks cute!

Paper Clip Book Marks

Here is some easy book marks that we made for an Enrichment Night, Paper clip book marks. Some ladies donated a bunch of cloth and ribbon. We cut the fabric 6-8 inches long. You need to fold the fabric in half, stick the folded end through the eye of the jumbo paperclip, the tuck the cut ends of the fabric into the loop and pull. Add a few strands to the paperclip and there you go! 

Looks really cute in books to mark your spot. And the ladies really had fun!

Lace and Denim Skirt

A quick and simple project that will be used daily...well, this little girl wishes it could be worn daily, but mom insists on washing clothes. :)

 I have a whole box full of jeans that look like this:

This is what happens when you have 5 boys right in a row...We would go through jeans like they were going out of style!  I just couldn't part with them because I knew that they would come in handy for some fun projects!  So I went to my trusty Jean Box and pull out these babies!

 First, cut off the legs.

Now, lay them flat and use your scissors to make them even.

I had a piece of large lace that was lying around with my material.  Just pin your right sides together and sew!  I finished it off with a hem stitch.

A cute little girl who loves skirts, boots and horses! 

She found a pair of her brother's old boots that are too small for him and has now claimed them as her own!  She wears these boots everywhere! 

I just wish I could look as cute as that!
