Brave Adventures!

My awesome sister sent me a flower hair tie. I thought it looked beautiful, so I tried to use it. My hair was too short. So I went ahead and made several with bobby pin things. Take a look at how cute they are! And with spring in the air, I'm excited to wear them in public!!! This is a brave adventure because I hope the bees don't think they're beautiful either...


I thought I'd give a view of how it looks in my hair over all. And after taking the picture, I discovered it opens up a beautiful strand of red hair.

These orchids are white, and I colored them with highlighters very carefully. The purple one turned out absolutely beautiful. I need to make a pink one still. Oh, and please ignore my hand in the picture. I'm not sure how it got there. lol

Here's the other ones that I made. This orchid is trimmed with yellow. It's difficult to tell in this picture. I wanted the rose to look like it had rain on it, so I put hot glue drops on it to enliven it. :) I love them, and they look amazing!!!

Your hair was long enough for the pony for a few seconds..lol I just know i love my flower hair ties they always make a simple pony something special. I always use E6000 which is super strong glue you can find in craft stores.

  2. YAY!! OH I LOVE THEM!!! I am going to go get some orcid silk flowers ASAP and glue them on some clips. I always use E6000 glue since it is super strong and you can find it at the craft store. Your hair was long enough for a hair tie for a minute..lol You'll get lots of complements on them- everyone always comments on my flower pony holders when i wear them.

    I'm glad you were inspired and made some they are amazing!

    Much Love
