Make your own curly hair clips.

I just found a website that shows you step by step how to make those darling, curly hair clips. I will post pics of my finished project after I try it. Here is the website www.instructables.com/id/Curlykorker-hair-bows/ . Have fun!

Travel activity boards/pillows




Yes, I know it is a miracle that I finally posted something new on this blog, but I finally have something that I think is worth posting.

My friend was the inspiration for these. I wanted to make something that my kids could put on their laps to draw and color on while we travel this summer. This is what I, with my friends help, came up with. This is a clip board (from the dollar store) attatched to a small pillow (that I made using my coupon from JoAnn's for the stuffing). I attatched it with velcro so the kids could take the board off and use the pillow to sleep on. If I would have had more velcro I would have taken it around the outside edges, but I think this will work.

I was able to make all 3 of these for under $10.
