I was feeling a bit crafty today so figured I should tackle some things that I have been wanting to do for some time...
1-make more fun hair things! (Thank you Pintrest for easy instructions!)... I just used scrap fabric this time to see what works, what doesn't, what is best for Miss A.... So we made some fabric rosettes to hook to clips (center), repurposed t-shirt 5strand braided head bands (purple top right), reversible headband (bottom right), reversible tie headband (top left {only one with new fabric}). For a first time run, I think they turned out pretty good. Now to do them with fun fabrics!
I've had a "system" in my closet for hanging up necklaces but it fell down a month ago (was only held up by double stick tape) and it hadn't gotten put back up. I really enjoyed having it in there. It was behind the back wall of our walk in closet, sometimes things were hung infront of it, sometimes it was in plain sight. It was handy, out of the way, and easily accessible while getting dressed. Then I saw the greatest idea and for 10$ hung a cheap thin towel bar in the back of our closet and used shower curtain hooks to hang things from. The best part is the ones I got have little balls on them which are great for separating the necklaces so each hook can hold about 6 necklaces!
You know what else that would be great for.....HEADBANDS! So Addy got one in her spare closet as well! Its hanging nicely above her hair supply drawers! We also finally hung up her hair clip holder that I made with an old frame from Goodwill (repainted, strung with ribbons). AND even hung up her new hooks for her little backpacks. (the hair clip holder and hooks fit perfectly behind her bedroom door)
We even had time after swim class to do some finger nail painting! AJ wanted different colors with glitter on top.

Ji'Robert wanted green with blue sparkles!

So it was a lovely day (even with a failed boy its too windy park attempt!).
