The Spectacular, Wonderful Hair Dos!

Hello everybody! Today we are doing Half Piggy tail and I done this by my self and this is going to be fun. So lets go!!!

1. make two piggy tails with the hair.
2. then leave1 half of each piggy tail and turn them into a pony tail.
Voila!  I told you it wasn't hard!






This one is trickier to explain.  Here are the steps though.  If you misunderstand it, just tell me on my website place.
1. Take two pieces from the front and make piggy tails with them.  Turn the bottoms into into one big ponytail in the middle of the back of your head.  
2. I grabbed more hair and the ponytail and put it into two piggy tails (The piggy tails are in the blue hair pieces.)  
3. Grab the two piggy tails and put it in a ponytail, and then spread it out and then you have it!

Woo!  I'm glad I explained it good enough!

Remember, you guys can type good compliments about my crafts and about my hair dos.  I'll post some more on here next week.  Bye!

Bead necklaces and bracelets

I would like to show you how to make bead necklaces.  I am making them for my mom for her Mary Kay customers.  Here's how to do it.

First, you need to have different colors of beads and necklace string.  I use this stretchy string my mom got from Oriental Trading.
You can use pipe cleaners, foam papers, and other stuff if you want to, but you don't have to.  Also make sure you have scissors.

Measure your string out to make sure it's long enough.  Then cut it to length.  Put the piece you want in the middle on first, and center it on the string.  Then put whatever other beads and stuff you want on the rest.  I cut out a circle from a soda bottle and painted it purple, and used that for my center piece.  My mom cut out a red foam heart.  When you are finished, just tie the string!
Here are two necklaces and one bracelet that my mommy and I made.  They were really easy!

mother's day card

I made this card for my mom.  You can make this card for anyone!

First, get tape, glue, glitter, yarn, and construction paper.  Fold your piece of paper in half.

Cut the yarn into 1-2 inch long pieces.

Tape the yarn pieces along the edge of the paper.  (The unfolded edge).  This gives the card a little extra something special!


Spread glue all around.  You can do it in a design, or just random, like this.

Sprinkle with glitter, and shake off the extra.  Now you've got a great decorated card for someone!

The Love Bugs

I love the Love Bugs. They came to my house. I like the love bugs.I really really really like them.So I made them a house.



*(I was so impressed to wake up from a nap to see that Munchkin had made the place all by herself!!)



( I especially loved how she decorated the wall of the baby's room, and the homemade broom she made!)

Here Comes the Penguin...I Mean Bride!

Munchkin made 2 penguins at school...one she brought home before Christmas break, the other she brought home 3 days ago. What better way to bring those sweet penguins together than to marry them? She fashioned the "dress and veil" for the blushing bride, and I thought it was quite crafty:
