tangerine pinwheels


You can tell I'm a little bit addicted to headband making. Once a new one is thought of and completed, it's a difficulty to not let myself wear it every day until I'm sick of it (or other people are). This delicious fabric was salvaged from a fancy thrift-store pillowcase, put together with gift fabric from Katie and velvet ribbon (my favorite).
I could see headbands being a pretty lifesaver for busy mothers, because they quickly (key here) add so much to hair or outfit and don't get in the way or get dirty.


It's been another lovely week in the Fox household (and I discovered that homemade espresso with whipped cream is dangerously yummy) and undeserved blessings abound. God is kind =)

with love;

Feltband

This new headband/fascinator was inspired by Ruby's beautiful new stocking for one of her girls. I love everything she does, and everything having to do with felt, mixed up colors, and that perfect, mauve-ish shade of purple. So with layered circles, gathered leaves, and embroidery floss, this was put together (and the first time I wore it the flowers were safety pinned on to the headband!). It's my new favorite thing and I'm in serious danger of wearing it every day for the next month. Try something like it and show me what you come up with! You can do anything with felt.


love,
