Make Something Every Day: Day Ten

Esme and I have been hankering to try making our own hair accessories.  She made the blue headband, we made the flowered clip together, and I made the purple headband.  This was our first attempt and I expect our future work will get much more complicated!  It was a fun start though, and we're thinking about making some cute flower clips for our Girl Scouts to wear to the fundraiser.

Make Something Every Day: Day Five

Between work, Math tests, and swim practice, Esme and I didn't have much time at home together today, so we decided on a nice easy project tonight.  We played around with our crafty supplies to make tags that could either be used for scrapbooking or Christmas projects.  Esme decided to make hers ornaments.

I've used things I've been into lately for scrapbooking: doilies, aluminum duct tape, felt, other fabrics, and twine.  Esme used punches, which are one of her favorite scrapbook tools.  She also used colored pencils and ink pads quite a bit.
