Lovely Spring Headbands

Today I finished adding lace, buttons, and bows to all my spring headbands! I just can't wait to take and share the pictures I'm going to put on Etsy! Only one more week till these cute accessories are available.

Florida Headbands

Before leaving for Florida I knit these summer headbands for my cousin and I. I love how you can wear these like a normal headband or you can wear them hippie style.

13 Ways To Wear a Knit Headband

I'm always trying to find easy new ways to wear my hair with a headband. 

Here are 13 of my favorite ways! 

1) Headband Over Hair

Simply throw your headband on over your hair. This is probably the most popular way to wear a headband

2) Headband Under Hair

This is anther popular way to wear a headband. You pull the headband down to your neck and then pull it to the top your head.

3) Pony tail

Here's a cute way to wear a headband! Simply pull your hair into a pony tail and then put a headband on. This is great for keeping the hair out of your face.

4) Low Up-Do

This is a little more difficult. I put my hair into 2 loose pig tail braids and then arranged them in a low up-do with bobby pins. This hair style reminds me of the 20's.

5) Pigtail Braids

 Just separate your hair into 2 parts and braid away! 

6) Side Sock Bun

For this hair style, it's best to have wavy hair. You'll also need a sock to create your sock bun! I love this hair style for special occasions. 

7) Headband Under Messy Side-Hair

For a messier look, you can tease your hair, brush it all to the side, and then pull on your headband.

8) Headband Over Messy Side-Hair

Do the same thing as the previous style, just put the headband over your hair rather than under.

9) Side Pony Tail

This is pretty easy! Just put your headband and then pull your hair into a side pony.

10) Side Braid

I like to braid my hair to the side before I put on the headband. 

11) Sock Bun

This is like the Side Sock Bun but it is a little less fancy! Once again, you'll need a sock.

12) Pony Tail Braid

This hair style is great if you want to make a fashion statement. Put your hair in a pony tail and then fishtail braid it. 

13) Side French Braid

You'll need to be able to french braid for this hair style. I started with my hair like it was for the messy side hair. After that, I began to french braid it. 

Hope this gave you some ideas for the next time you wear a headband! What are your favorite headband hair styles? 

Knit Bracelets

After seeing so many different knit bracelets on blogs and Pinterest, I decided to knit myself a few! There are so many reasons why I now love knitting bracelets....

1) They are quick to make
2) They use up left over yarn
3) They make perfect gifts
4) They look lovely with fancy buttons (and I have hundreds of un-used buttons!)
5) They're stretchy so they can fit different sized wrists
6) They are so very pretty

The Half-Knit Sweater

Here are some pictures of the sweater I'm half done knitting. You can't really tell but I've already knit two arm holes. Once I've knit the length I want, I shall knit the sleeves, add buttons, and be done!

November Line

Guess what?!? My November line is now available on Etsy. Inspired by England, my November line consists of bright reds, light blues, Union Jack and vintage buttons, and lots of lace. All of these new items would make amazing, one-of-a-kind gifts this holiday season. Here are some pictures of these new items (I will be posting more later). Also make sure to check out my Etsy store again in a week because my new hand-knit ornaments will be available!
