Introducing London (and a little bit of DIY)

Happy Friday All! I'm gearing up for a visit from my parents and finally persuaded London (my 3 year old daughter) to take off her satin cap. We bought it last weekend for her to wear when she sleeps, to protect her lovely curls and to make the daunting task of detangling her hair a bit easier. Anyway, she calls it her "bed hat" and wears it all the time now! I guess it could be worse; she could refuse to wear it, and I'd have to continue to deal with dry hair and nasty tangles (and London's wails that rival a banshee's).

She's wearing such a cute little shirt (my mother got it for her from Old Navy) and I wanted to add a little something something to her hair to finish her look. I found a stray piece of ribbon and attempted to tie it around her hair as a headband, but alas, it was too short. Then I had an idea...

Take a piece of ribbon and an elastic ponytail holder...

Tie one end of the ribbon to the ponytail holder...

Then the other end...

Now you have a headband!

I think she likes it!

And voila! We have a new hair accessory! It was so insanely easy to do, now I'm totally going to make more for all 3 of my girls. It's amazing what you can create with a little imagination and ingenuity. I hope this inspires you to get crafty! Look around you and see what you can put together. Take some pictures and post them on my Facebook page! I'll make a photo album with all of our DIY projects!

Until next time...

Ciao, XxO
