Super Easy Casual Hippie Headband Made by YOU!

Okay, short little post today, but I want to post a picture of me wearing a super cute hippie headband that I made in uh, 2 mins the other day :0 

Pick three different type of fun fabrics, nylony material, thick fun thread type material (like shown on me) and measure your head - add about 1/2 to 3/4 inch to the actual fabric you use (unless it is stretchy), braid and tie at the end.  Voila!  New fun trendy hippie headband :) 

Here is a pic of me wearing my fun turquoise headband :)

Hippie Headbands and Digital Photography!

Okay, today I am writing about my two favorite things to do right now (okay, my husband may say obsessions, BUT...). 

PRODUCT - I am really into my hippie headband Fall line which has buttons, feathers, beautifully colored layered flowers (think oranges, chocolate browns, golden yellows) and are modeled by beautiful Madi K, who happens to be my BFF and my model :) 

PHOTOGRAPHY - In addition, I have been working very hard on brushing up on my technical skills in digital photography.  As many of you know, photography is and has been a HUGE love of mine (besides food and wine :0) for some time now and I believe in the next year I will be confident enough to launch that part of my business (and then the next year graphic and web design upon completion of my degree!!!).  SO many exciting things in the future! 

PERSONAL - Things are going very well for us right now - Jason and I will be celebrating our 6th wedding anniversary on Saturday (how times files and families grow!), I have been busy doing several bridal and non-bridal custom orders, have semi-updated my Etsy shop and my line is doing very well at the children's boutique here in town (butters&beans - check it out at buttersandbeans.com) :)  My line there consists of korker bows, tuxedo bows, funky clips, alligator clips, bobby pins (small and large), hippie headbands, children's headbands, newborn headbands and burp cloths!  If you are in the cities you NEED to check it out!

If anyone tells you that raising three children (and trying to run a business) is easy - they are lying.  Seriously.

Here are some pics of some of my new headbands, a bridal piece and some photos I took of Zoe and London that I am super psyched about (had to include the one of Presley, but by no means is it Professional material) :). You can click on the pics to enlarge...
