Inspired Pom Pom Headband

I was inspired to create this little pom pom headband after visiting one of my favorite blogs.  This was my first attempt making pom poms and I was a little scared to cut them too small.  Now I feel a little more confident to give them a shorter hair cut the next time I try to make one! It turned out to be sooo easy.  I wondered what took me so long to try it! You may think of pom poms for winter hats but I love how they look on a cute headband too!

I learned how to make a pom pom through the You Tube instructional video below.  One note- I used my fingers instead of an envelope to wrap it. If you try this, I'd love to see a picture of your creation!

Change Of Season

 Yesterday when we were decorating our house for the Christmas season it started to snow. Not a big, oh my goodness it's the first official snowfall of the season type of snow. It was just enough to see the flakes whirl around and it got down right cold outside. It put me in the mood to create all kinds of holiday crafty goodness but I was left with absolutely no time to myself. I had my head in the clouds with ideas of creating a whole bunch of handmade ornaments and one by one taking all the store bought ones down and replacing them with joy. Then I thought about making a big wreath to go on our door. What are your favorite holiday crafting projects or any projects in general? I'm looking for inspiration for future blog posts. In the meantime- I hope you enjoy some of my photography.

Finding Inspiration

It is a beautiful morning in Upstate New York here in the USA! I just wanted to share my view of the world with you. I hope it inspires you to have an amazing day and maybe create something special for someone you love.

I took this picture with my I-phone. I love being able to take beautiful pictures even when I don't have my fancy camera with me. I'm thinking about starting a small scrapbook of the beautiful skies I see.
Drop me a note or share a picture from your part of the world on our Flicker page! I'd love to see what inspires you!
