Handmade is the way to go!

So I was shopping in Target yesterday...{who doesn't love that store!!} and I was looking thru the jewelry and hair accessories.  I'm trying to get a bit more fashiony and have always loved the cute headbands {can't wear...they give me a headache}, and the flowers you can clip in your hair.  But really.....almost $5 for a measly flower that is the size of a half dollar and is fraying??  

That sent me in search of a way to make my own, and this is what I came up with:



I found the tutorial for the fabric flowers on Blair's site.  I think I may have found a new project that will take up a bit of my time...I have so many friends that I'm sure would love one!

Always,
