Fleurs and cakestands~

So what are all the fashionable elementary-school girls wearing these days?

Flowers.

In their hair, that is.

And since it is extremely important for a six-year-old to be fashion forward, my sweet friend Trisha and I spent the better part of one morning last week, deconstructing silk flowers and then reconstructing them into pretty posies for our girls' hair.

In all honesty, it was a bit more work than I thought it would be...I had visions of just gluing clips on the back of each flower. No such luck. But on the bright side, I didn't burn myself with my hot glue gun for the first time...ever! Ha!



They turned out quite pretty, though, and they had the added benefit of causing the Princess to ASK me to do her hair every morning. If I'd know that was going to happen, I'd have made some ages ago!




And look at the wonderful cake stand I won from a giveaway by sweet Layla at The Lettered Cottage! Thanks so much Layla!!
