braided headband...

The DH and I both have much younger sisters....like 18 years younger! The hubs and I are 3 years apart and when we were each 18 our moms had babies! They were both the same age when they got pregnant too....how weird is that?! We got married when the girls were 5 and 2 and moved 3 hours away. Even though we weren't around much when the were little we have special connections with our younger sisters! Each summer we have them come to our house and stay with stay with us for a week. In between all the activities we do, some crafty time usually gets squeezed in!

When my sister-in-law was here 2 weeks ago we decided to make these braided headbands...
The tutorial was so easy to follow. We whipped these up in no time...just using supplies I had on hand {fabric, elastic hair bands and hot glue!}. The tutorial showed you could add a fabric flower as well but we decided to leave the flowers off of ours.

Here is Becca modeling her creation!

Coming to your house for a week each summer is a wonderful opportunity for both Rebecca and Gabby. Rebecca has worn the headbands and they are very cute!
