My sister and I have recently joined Pinterest, which is thoroughly addicting. Well the DIY section has tons of ideas and we found one that we liked along with an idea we came up with on our own.

What you will need:

ribbon
buttons
plastic headbands
decorative ribbons or chains – if you want
elastic hair ties
bobby pins
a hot glue gun – lots of extra glue sticks

First is our idea – buttons on headbands and bobby pins.

Then we made bows and even put one on a headband.

The last idea was one we got off of Pinterest. Make your own headbands. Although the big fat one was a five strand braid that my sister made.

All of the stuff is pretty easy and fun to make and cute to wear. Be careful when using the hot glue gun. It’s called hot for a reason.

Cute Knit Winter Headband

I’ve been on a knitting binge lately making various things with my mass amounts of yarn. I thought, ” Hey, the hats I’ve been making lately are too small so I’ll try something else.” I’m fond of the basket weave pattern. My sister also thought a flower would be a nice touch, although I think this one is a little too small. Anyway, this is what I came up with.

Hats Hats Hats

I like knitting and I like making things for myself and others. After finding a great ribbed hat pattern on a different blog I’ve been making quite a few of them. Well two so far, but I’m on my third and this one isn’t even for me. I want mine in blue. I just can’t remember what size needles I used to make the others so I figured my sister could have this one. Then I made it and realized that it won’t even fit her. Thankfully I know a few people with kids.

Here’s my progress:

Here are the other hats I’ve made:

Who Has the Best French Fries?

Lily and I decided to test all the french fries from fast food restaurants in town and rank them. Lily even made a chart that we could use to rank the fries from 1 to 10 on saltiness, crispiness, sogginess and overall score. Then we added it all up to see who won.
