Hair day and one long overdue project...

I completed a few hair thingy's today (here is one in Miss E's hair). I find them fun to do because they are so quick and satisfyingly cute. I even managed the tutorial for one. If anyone is interested I could do a tutorial for the others as well.

I haven't quite finished with this one. I didn't have any orange thread (I was thinking of using pink thread maybe...) but will use that in the button as well. Or maybe use the little orange sparkly button in the next photo. What do you think? Which one do you prefer?

I also finally finished a little project that has been hanging around for a loooong time. I bought this mason jar expressly for this project from Martha about 3 years ago. Weeell, I have finally done it and, seeing as it took me, oh, about 10 mins, I have to wonder why I haven't done it earlier. Oh well, that is one for the inane mystery books. I am quite happy with how it has turned out although I don't have hot glue and I am not sure if my glue is going to hold.

Ribbon Hairclip tutorial

Well, I had so many steps in this tutorial that I decided to do it as a downloadable PDF. Seems a bit silly for such a tiny little item but there you go...I am nothing if not thorough!

Now, I decided to do this tutorial as a PDF without knowing what was involved in putting one into Blogger. Not so easy I discovered. Anyway I worked out a working solution using Scribd so hope it works ok. I will be interested in any feedback as that will sway my decision as to whether I do it this way again or not. Anyway, you can click on the link below and you can download or print or do multiple things with it there. You might want to open in a new tab or window as I don't think it will do that automatically. (p.s. something happened with the font of the tutorial title during the conversion - will fix that later if I get a chance otherwise I am trusting you can ignore that!)

Enjoy! (phew)
