Headband stand :)

So I have a ton of headbands and wanted to have a stand to put them all together. So I found a quick and easy way to store them and add the cute factor. This is a no see project and takes about 5minutes!! Enjoy!!

What you need:
paper towel roll
scissors
fabric
pins
& of course headbands ;)

The first things you do is place your paper towel roll on top of the fabric and cut it to size....make sure you have it wide enough to stuff the ends.

Fold one side about an inch fabric side down (as shown in the picture).

Wrap the fabric all the way around and secure the middle with a pin. I used about four pins for the whole length of the towel.

The last step is to stuff the excess fabric into the paper towel roll and give your headbands a new home!

I had an extra strip of fabric that I folded over and decide to hang the bows and flowers for my hair!!

Double slit maxi skirt


I made this skirt over the summer and have had many compliments and a few of my friends would like me to make one for them! I decided to make the same skirt but in white...and oh the possibilities when it comes to dying the white fabric. I love this skirt because it is so cute and comfortable to wear.This skirt is very easy to make if you can follow a few easy steps.

The first thing you need to do is make an elastic belt. If you already have an elastic belt you can use that for measurement. You can also measure against your own waist but pull a little tight how you would wear it.

Then you need to decide how long you would like the skirt. I am only 5ft so my skirt is about 40 inches long, starting at my waist down to the floor. I made it about 1.5 inches longer to finish off the edges.

The skirt is made out of two pieces of material that over lap at the sides. The larger panel of material covers the back side and the front piece makes the slit. The back panel measures around the back and stops around where your hip bone would be. You want to make both of these panels 3-5 inches wider to save room to gather. If you do not gather these pieces of material it will not have the flowing look. The front panel is about an inch longer to cover the front of the skirt.
