DIY Feather Hair Extensions I've had feathers in my hair since April and I absolutely love them. They behave just like my actual hair-- they can be curled with the curling iron and dried with the hair dryer. Even though over the summer I watched every 8-year-old girl I know become my pink, orange, and blue fine-feathered friends, (I just like all feathers, actually.) :) So before these hackle feathers became a hair trend, they were used by fly fishermen for bait. To add the feather hair extensions yourelf, you need: ♥Feathers. Step 1: First you need to divide a tiny section of hair where you want to put your feather extension. Step 2: Now you need to slide the bead down on the two sides of wire and pull your hair through the bead. Step 3: Next you slide the feathers into the bead. That's it! PS-- This yellow scarf is the softest scarf, ever. :)
DIY: Cape Hallo ihr Lieben, dank der lieben Julia die ein Cape bei mir 'bestellt' hat - und ich darafhin wieder Grund zum Nähen hatte - gibts hier nun die langersehnte Anleitung für meine Cape-Jacke ;) 'Do it yourself'-guide for this Cape: 1.) You need 150cm fabric Schneide eine 20cm breite Bahn ab (für den Flechtkragen) cut a panel of 20cm (for braided collar) 2.) Cut your panel in 3 long panels and stitch them together (then you get 3 tunnels of fabric): und flechte deine drei Teile zu einem langen Zopf zusammen... plait a twist from these 3 strips... 3.) Nähe alle Kanten um und versäubere alles schön... But back to the cape: finish the edges... und schneide dann ein Loch für deinen Kopf in die Mitte des Stoffbruchs (Achtung: Loch nicht zu groß schneiden ,man verschätzt sich leicht!) Und nähe ca. 20cm unter der oberen Kante Richtung Kopfteil ein (= angedeutete Ärmel) ...and then cut an opening for your head in the middle of the fabric (be careful and do not cut the opening too big!). 4.)
Tie Dye Instructions Color Choice The two most obvious differences between a wonderful tie-dye and a so-so one are color choice and color saturation. You'll find that you really have to work to squirt enough dye into the folds to avoid a large amount of white on the finished garment. A good basic rule is to apply two colors next to each other only if they appear next to each other in the following short list: fuchsia...yellow...turquoise...purple...fuschia ...or, for a more detailed color scheme, choose adjacent colors from the following expanded list: fuchsia...red...orange...yellow...green...turquoise...blue...purple...fuschia It really does help to place fuchsia between red and purple.

The Audrey Cape Tutorial This tutorial is for personal use only. Thank you. These capes are one of the girls' favorite things that we have yet made. I am not kidding when I say that this cape comes out everyday....and I won't let it be worn to school yet (it's still in the mid 80's here---and apparently I am a mean mom) so someone is waiting for the day that it will finally be cool enough that she can wear it to school. But I am glad that it is a keeper, because it was easy and cute. Here is the thing about this cape.....and I know I say this often on our blog but you are all going to faint at how easy this pattern is. All it is.....is a BASIC CIRCLE SKIRT! One of my favorite things is to take a super simple pattern and make it into something else. Here is what you need: One word of advice: This was a thrifting challenge, so I ended up making the linings of these capes from regular cotton fabric. Also, I made two capes.

Make a Devil Costume What You'll Need: Black and red clothing A set of horns (try this cute devil horn tutorialRed heels or black shoes Devil costumes are easy, because all you really need is a set of horns and some black clothing.
