FrenchBraid Bands to Low Side Pony

This was fun simple and very quick. I started by making a small french braid along the right side of her head.  Braid it all the way down.

      Make another small french braid along the other side of her head braid all the way to the ends.

                                                        Pull all the hair into a low side ponytail.

                                          I then wrapped her hair around the elastic to hide it.



5 Braids Fun

I made a very small french braid above her ear.  Then make a parallel braid above the first.  The top braid goes from the center of her head straight back.  Do the same on the other side of her head.  There will be 5 braids all together.

Once the braids are done put all the hair into a ponytail.

I didn't pull the hair all the way through on the last round through the elastic.

Shutterfly Christmas/Holiday Cards

I know this has nothing to do with hair but I am so excited for Christmas this year! & I've already started thinking about Christmas Cards. I'm totally digging the bright colors this year. I plan on using a black & white photo with the bright colors, it just seems to make the words POP out. I always DS my own cards but this year, Shutterfly is giving 50 free Holiday cards to bloggers. That is an awesome deal! Especially if you are planning on getting cards, why not get them free? & it's super easy - you just have to upload your own photo. Much easier {& quicker} than having to come up with a design on your own (like when you DS them). Honestly, I've never used Shutterfly before but my sisters are often printing through them. They have done both books & CALENDARS & they all look really nice. So you don't only have to get cards from them. These are a couple of my favorite: I am totally digging the red & turquoise together! So fun!

& there's tons more. If you go HERE you can see what other Christmas cards they have. If you're want more HOLIDAY CARDS, they have those too.

They also have lots of other cute ideas, like Christmas labels. Go HERE to check them out. Isn't that such a fun idea? Check their website out, there's tons of fun Christmas gift ideas. But you can use them all year long, for any occassion!
