French braids with a headband


Here is my baby girl with puppy molly. I really wanted to keep her. She was our last puppy left. But, unfortunatly my husband thinks 3 dogs are enough. She went to her forever home just this morning. :(


Okay, now for hair.... :) First part the hair across from ear to ear. I actually made the part just behind the ears.


I sectioned the top into 3 sections and french braided them straight back, stopping when I got to the back part. I didn't braid the sides.


Instead, I took the sides and secured them together underneath her hair at the nape of the neck.



I twisted the ponytail from each braid into buns by twisting the hair until it started to curl into itself then twisted it around the base of the ponytail.


I liked how this headband looked in it. The buns also help the headband from sliding off of her head.

A down-do and bow holder


The kids are starting to feel better!!!! So Julia asked me to do her hair, I was thrilled! OK, I first parted the hair Straight across from ear to ear.


Then I made another part diagonally.


Working to the right of the diagnol part, I put in 3 rows of french braids, following the part. Then I went to the other side and did 3 more rows of french braids starting at the part and going down.


I twisted the 3 left braids together, and the 3 right ones together.



I twisted the 2 twists together on the left side. Add a small bow.



This is my first attemp at making a bow holder. I just bought the pre made wood princess sign, and an acrylic paint set from the dollar store. Then I hot glued the ribbon to it. Having somewhere to put all of her bows is GREAT!
