When Ella was invited to a Princess Party, I knew the attire would be a breeze. I have been collecting tulle out of the remnant bin at Hobby Lobby for months so I could make a tutu. A princess party gave me the perfect excuse! I made the tutu, picked out pants, a tank, and a sweater to wear with it.
Next came accessories. I'm a pretty simple girl myself. I wear a wedding band, engagement ring, and a mother-child necklace I got for Christmas a couple of years ago. I rarely wear earrings, and the only time I wear something in my hair is when I mow the yard. And then it's an old bandanna.
I've made E a few hair bows here and there, but I really wanted something a little more special for this occasion. I wandered around Hobby Lobby for a while before ending up in the scrapbooking section. I found some non-paper flowers and decided to roll with it. Flowers in the hair? Absolutely!
I know this is not some new, novel idea. Everybody's doing it. I really liked that I got 2 different packages that I can mix and match to make different hair clips. I spent about $7 and will be able to make at least 10-12 clips. I bought my alligator clips from The Soda Pop Shop on Etsy.Can we say hooked??

That is an adorable hair bow! How sweet that you went to that much trouble for another child's birthday party! I'm a new follower from Follow Me Fridays.
