PonyTail Streamers

Here are a couple of hair streamers I put together as part of my nieces birthday gift. These ribbon streamers attatched to ponytail holders were not only simple to make, but they were also
perfect for my neice being she usually wears her hair in a ponytail, but doesn't care to add additional accessories such as clips and bows that are usually attached with clips.

Embellished Letters: "E'' FINALLY!!

Finally, I figured out what to do with the "E", since I ran out of rhinestones half way through lining the entire outside of it and there were none to be found (that I could get my hands on in time for her party)  in the size or color I had already started using. However, I believe everything happens for a reason, so I tried not to let it bother me too much.

And here it is the "E"... FINALLY...
It matches the "I'' better than I had anticipated. Not saying it's the prettiest letter in the world, but I'm impressed it came out this decent. There is a  touch-up I'll have to make on the bottom star though.



This is another pendent (star) from that same necklace matching the pendants I used on the ''M''; however I frosted this piece. The glue used to attach the rhinestones obviously leaked and is much more visible on frost. I used another coat, but it looks like I'll have to use one more; this time I'll use mod podge diluted in water to help blend it in. It gives a similar effect, but I wouldn't recommend using it for big pieces.
I also added links to the star and attached decorative brads as pendents. In the picture I had a dragon fly behind each, but I took them off before finishing up. It was just too bulky; they are cute dragonflies, but this wasn't the spot for them.
Well hope you enjoyed this explanation and have a great evening!!

DIY Embellishments: (somewhat) Better images

Finally got my camera back today!!! YAY!!  I was able post a pic of one embellishment (the butterfly and flower), but my son's last T-ball game is tonight so i'll have to update the other pictures when I get back. Stay tuned!!!!


DIY Gerger Daisy (Cheeta print)
I may add to this by making it into a badge/ gift topper and probably turn one into a magnet being I made a couple of them. They're not very time consuming either.


A much better view of
DIY Pinwheels, Flower, and Butterfly embellishments.

More Sneak Peak Embellishments

I first must apologize for the horrible quality of these pictures. My camera is currently out if commission and I've been substituting it with my low resolution camera on my phone. Once again sorry!!
So I added on to the flower by placing a pinwheel on each side with an "X" on one and an "O" on the other.
I've obviously made way too many embellishments for the letter, being her name consist if only four letter, but I have a couple of ideas of what to do with them... One will be a magnets, but stay tuned to discover their future purposes!! Also, if you have any questions or concerns about any of my creations, your more than welcome to ask. Message me and I promise I'll get back to you!! Thanks!!
