Last week I made some of these for our girls. And I love them. Practical? Not really. But I say who cares! I only have my little girls for a short while and I plan on loving every minute, whether it's practical or not. So if your like me and your heart skips a beat when you see your daughter all dressed up then follow these instructions to make a perfectly impractical headpiece just like this one.

And even better when mixed with spinach and peas and blue cheese and ... View the Post
