Fact : Fab Fabric Flowers are For Sale !

I CAN DO IT !! I can make fabric hair flowers and I am!! They are FABULOSITY, well maybe they are just fabulous to me but nevertheless. Shabby Chic for sure and well I am NO perfectionist sooooo can you see a seam here and some glue there? Sure, but what they hey its in your hair to be admired from afar so it shouldn’t really matter all that much !!


It's almost Christmas, the most bittersweet time of year for me. I say that because I love the season and the reason for it, I do think the reason gets lost among the shopping, spending, wanting, family bickering, etc. Also, having 4 kids of my own and my husband having 3 others atop of that, makes the already stretched pocketbook look like me at 8 months with twins. Not an easy feat to say the least. I want desperately to spoil my kids with a big and lustrous Trump like holiday, something right out of Macy’s Christmas window !!! I want to gift all my friends and family, feed the poor and hungry, give to the teachers and the parents and the neighbors, bake and bake and bake some more, go caroling, put on a lavish display of singing Griswaldesque lights, overflow the bell ringers basket with hundreds of dimes ! Literally, my heart overflows with the urge to give !!!! And then, I get my paycheck.
My dreams are dashed; my heart says "this is for the best Colleen!!!" Teach your children about the reason, keep it simple, count your blessings as they are many - you have food, water, lights and warmth. Do not covet the neighbors 20,000 twinkle lights, blow up north pole scene and shiny red, glittering, glorious, turbo charged, hemi, V8 Challenger…. ITS OVERRATED !! What you have here is perfect and more than many others have. 4 healthy kids. They will be happy with the simple gifts, under a tree of ornaments made with love, by them, at school throughout the years, Macy aint got $hit on that, right ?! Honestly though I want both, is it even possible ???

Well, This went way off course, bottom line, I am making fabulous fabric hair flowers to make extra money for last minute Christmas items and stocking stuffers, praying I will sell out of them and showing them off because Im pretty proud, even though they are simple, I have mastered it as a skill and feel pretty stinkin good about that right now ! There are a million and 2 tutorials on line if you want to make them too.

! Merry Christmas to all !
