Monday Moments - You can't say I didn't try...

I don't really consider myself a "crafty" person. I wish I enjoyed crafts more, but I don't have the patience or the mind set. I usually stick to my cooking, cleaning, organizing and writing. Those are the things I'm good at. But every now and then I muster up the motivation to channel the small part of me that will attempt a craft here and there.

My latest motivation was making cute little clips for my little "R". I know I'm the minority, but I'm not really a fan of the big bows or flower headbands. I kind of think little "R" looks like a big birthday or Christmas present when I've tried putting them on her head. I think her face is just too cute to draw the attention away from it...to the top of her head. But now that she's got a little hair I think a subtle understated clip here and there would look really cute.

So...I went out and bought some cute ribbon and little embellishments to make some trendy little clips. I think they turned out pretty darn cute for an untalented crafty like myself.



Unfortunately little "R" will have none of it. Sometimes I can sneak them into her hair un-expecting. But the second she realizes they are there...she pulls them out immediately and brings them to me. Then she claps and giggles like it's a game of hide-and-seak...and she's the winner. I guess their good for something.
