Taking a pair of tights – women’s or girls’ (Liberty’s worked. Thanks, L.) – and cutting a two inch wide strip from around the top of the leg (so that it’s still an unbroken circle) and then hot-gluing a 1” or so length of ribbon around it in one spot, overlapping the ribbon and gluing with a spot of glue on the inside only makes a great headband. An alligator bow/flower clip can then be slid under the ribbon on the outside. Voila! One of those “interchangeable” headbands at the cost of one pair of old, worn-out tights. If you can stop at just one color. Next up are my black ones. I have never heard of a better use for the awful things.
Clean is preferable. Of course.
Or, like mine, purchased with great intentions, yet never, ever worn.
See?
Charlie loves hers.
I think.
It’s not scary. I promise.
*This helpful hint originated from an acquaintance. I’m simply not this creative on my own.
Charlotte looks a LOT like Sterling. She has his temperament as well. Beautiful little girl. She has changed soooo much since I was there.
