It’s baby-time around here- Baby Evie is too sweet for words. Our week’s been filled with kissing and snuggling and hugging and loving her teensy-weensy-ness. Miraculous- just miraculous. I love the baby-doll-and-Evie lineup photo (Drew’s idea) above. And Jord is in crazy-great shape for having a baby a week ago- wow. I’m so proud of her. I just love having the chance to see my sisters become the most beautiful, caring, intentional mamas.
That said, we’re still catching up on Project Run and Play tutorials around here. Y’all are so funny about the Anthropologie ensemble from last week. Rest assured- tutorials for the yellow striped dress, the removable petticoat, the ruffled cardigan and the beaming featherfew knock-off pin are all coming… thanks for your sweet emails/comments!
We thought we’d leave you with a tutorial for the rolled fabric barrette that Joanie wore with her sweet yellow dress for Week 2.
To make one, you’ll need:
-two 3″ circles for each rosette
-hot glue gun and hot glue
-child’s barrettes with felt cover
-small piece of felt
1. Stack two pieces of fabric together- cut into 3″ circles.
2. Cut both layers into a spiral.
3. Glue the center of the spiral back onto itself.
4. Begin wrapping (and gluing) the spiral into a rosette.
5. Once you have three rosettes, hot glue in a trio onto a scrap of felt.
6. Trim around the edges of the felt base. Hot glue onto a felt covered barrette.
7. Pair with a sweet dress. Isn’t it the perfect accent?
ps- The voting for this week’s Project Run and Play is still open. It looks like Vintage Vail might do us in. 😉 If you haven’t had a chance to vote, we’d love it if you would (though, to be honest, we’re honored to even have made it this far!).
I hadn't noticed the accessory in the photo shoot, but love it now that you have given us the close up. Thanks for sharing!
